Municipality of Agia Paraskevi: New depot in privately owned space - Waste will remain less time on the streets

The Municipality of Agia Paraskevi has established a new waste depot in a privately owned space, aiming to improve waste management and reduce the time waste remains on the streets.

For the first time in its history, the Municipality of Agia Paraskevi has opened a waste depot in a privately owned location. The relocation marks the end of 42 years of operating the previous depot in Chalandri, which was inadequate for modern needs and often presented various operational problems. The new facilities now house the municipality's cleanliness department, with garbage trucks and other municipal vehicles parked in a safer, better-organized, and more functional environment.

The municipal authorities have clarified that a Waste Transfer Station will not be part of the new depot. The benefits of this new infrastructure include ownership and stability for the municipality, addressing a chronic issue regarding public infrastructure. This initiative is expected to lead to significant financial relief through reduced expenses associated with managing green and bulky waste, providing a more efficient waste handling process for the community.

Overall, the creation of this new depot reflects the municipality's commitment to improving waste management services and enhancing operational efficiency. By investing in its own facilities, Agia Paraskevi aims to foster a cleaner environment and better service delivery for its residents, which in turn could contribute positively to public satisfaction and the municipality’s image.
