In a step towards sustainability and to reduce air pollution and dispose of debris properly, the Ahmedabad Municipal Corporation’s (AMC) forest and environment department will develop municipal corporation plots in different areas as debris collection centres.
Which areas will get debris collection centres?
Crystal Palace Area, SP Ring Road
Pushpa Residency, Vastral
Open space behind Kirtan Apartment, Ranip
Sorai Nagar ground, Vasna
Naroda-Dehgam Road, Naroda
ITI Road, Kubernagar
Om Shanti Nagar, near the canal, Lambha
Ramol Road, Indrapuri
Behind Samruddhi Residency, Narol
Bhoot Ni Ambli, Raipur
Madhavbaug, near the water tank, Sarangpur
Prem Darwaja, Dariyapur
Near Dada Hari ni Vav, Asarwa
Ognaj Road, Gota
Near Sarkar Chavadi, Makarba
Three out of the fifteen waste collection centres will be renovated.
In an effort to make the city a zero-waste city, the AMC’s Solid Waste Management (SWM) department is collecting door-to-door waste via vehicles.
By keeping all systems, plants, and centres there will be a reduction in circulating dust particles which further creates health issues for people.
Citizens will be able to complain to the AMC under the SWM rules and dispose of debris by paying the necessary administrative charges.
