No more waste on roads, open spaces
Dhaka South City Corporation (DSCC) Mayor Barrister Sheikh Fazle Noor Taposh yesterday said no more garbage and waste would be allowed on roads and open places.
Garbage collectors will collect waste from house to house from six o'clock in the evening in every ward. All waste will be transferred to an Intermediate Waste Transfer Center (STS) by 10 pm. From there, the waste will be taken to Matuail waste disposal site, said Taposh, while laying foundation stone of Islamabad STS under ward-29.
Taposh said, "We have already rearranged our waste management activities. From now on, we will build waste transfer centres in the wards which do not have one."
Meanwhile, Mayor Taposh said that cleaners will sweep the streets from 9pm and Dhaka city will be clean and tidy within 6am the next day.
Later, Taposh inspected the STS to be constructed at Malibagh (ward-12) and inspected the road adjacent to Nagar Bhaban, Bangabazar, Anandabazar and Fulbaria bus stopover and identified some existing problems.
