Hello! Seya Public Works Office!

Public Works Office is responsible for the maintenance and management of roads, rivers and parks in the city, and strives to create an environment where residents can spend time with peace of mind.
It seems that some calls have been received from the site about roads, rivers, parks, etc. today.
While traveling around the area by patrol car, I will introduce some of Public Works Office's work and everyday events.

It's a patrol car!

• There is a hole in the road!
• The sewage is overflowing!
• The river is muddy!
• I can't see the trees in the park!
• We respond to emergencies such as disasters and accidents.
• Let's use it properly! Everybody's Road
• Clean the town!

• The road is sinking and the hole is open.
• The lid of the gutter is damaged
• The guardrail and gaze guide (reflector) are broken.
• The angle of the curve mirror is shifted (*)
• The street lights on the main road are off (*)

(※) If you have any problems with curve mirrors or street lights, please let us know your management number.

Tuck it → Hit it → Repair is completed!

Tampers and plates are active.

Street lights

Management Number

Curve mirror

Due to the power shortage caused by the Great East Japan Earthquake, some lights on roads and parks have been turned off as a power saving measure.
There are some darker places than usual, so be careful when passing.

The sewer
It is collected through each drainage pipe on the premises and connected to the connection.
From there, it is collected in public rainwater pipes or sewage pipes.

Public-private management boundaries of drainage pipes

Connect.

Unscrupulous commercial law has occurred, such as checking drainage facilities, claiming unreasonable prices, and selling chemicals and equipment.
If you feel "weird," please ask Public Works Office for identification, write down the name of the trader, the person in charge, and contact information.

Let's refuse it.
If you are too persistent for a contract, tell them to contact the police.

Drainage facilities in residential lands are basically not clogged or broken if used normally.
If there is a problem, please consult your local "Yokohama City Drainage Designated Construction Shop".

• There is an oil slick
• White and cloudy
• There is a dead fish.

A white and muddy river

・It enters paddy fields and affects crops.

・Waterside creatures die

・Generate a bad smell

・・It may adversely affect the natural environment and living environment.
Road gutters and rainwater masu are connected to rivers, so be careful not to drain waste such as paint or drainage.

If garbage accumulates in rivers and waterways, rainwater may be blocked and water may overflow.

Role of Trees

The branches of the tree grow. It is necessary in daily management to cut it properly.
However, there are many different types of trees. Some trees drop leaves in winter, while others drop leaves in summer.
The gentleness of the tree is to care for the optimal season according to the growth of each tree.

In addition to regular safety patrols, when a heavy rain flood warning is issued or when an earthquake with a seismic intensity of 4 or more occurs in the city, staff members gather urgently and patrol the city.

Near Futatsubashicho, Nakahara Highway
Alarm device for overpass

A device has been installed to notify drivers of road flooding (flooding about 5 cm) where rainwater gathers at low positions on the road due to sudden heavy rain.
This information is sent to Public Works Office instantly.

Patrol car

On weekdays, I go around the city by patrol car every day.
For maintenance and management, we conduct a safety patrol while keeping an eye on driving, saying, "Is there anything unusual?"

• Fences and branches protrude into the road, and walking is dangerous.
• Bicycles and motorbikes cover the Braille blocks
• Baby strollers and wheelchairs cannot pass through products and signs on the street.
• Flags and standing signs prevent pedestrians from passing.

Cleaning at Nakayashiki Chuo Park

Roads and parks are always kept clean thanks to the local people cleaning them. Would you like to participate in the event?

Public Works Office supports the activities of organizations that cooperate in the beautification and cleaning of nearby roads by providing equipment necessary for cleaning and disposing of garbage.
