According to the Public Relations and International Affairs Department of the Arak Metropolitan Municipality, following field inspections by the municipality’s crisis manager and a review of the safety conditions of the city’s southern ring road, a large boulder weighing approximately 3 tons, which had been displaced from its original position due to recent rainfall and was in an unstable condition, was identified; a hazard that could have fallen onto the road surface and caused an accident for passing vehicles.
The municipality’s crisis manager in Arak told our reporter in this regard: Immediately after this high-risk point was identified, the matter was placed on the agenda of the relevant municipal departments, and with the mobilization of personnel, equipment, and resources from the fire department, waste management, civil engineering, green space, and traffic engineering and supervision organizations, the safety-securing and hazard-removal operation began.
Mehdi Aqaziyarti stated: During this operation, in order to ensure the safety of citizens and the operational teams, the southern ring road was temporarily closed, and after technical measures and safety arrangements were carried out, the unstable boulder was secured and moved down.
He said at the end: With the implementation of this operation, the risk of the rock falling onto the vehicle traffic route was eliminated, and possible accidents on this corridor were prevented.
It is worth noting that this action is an example of the importance of field monitoring, proactive identification of accident-prone points, and operational coordination among different municipal departments in managing urban hazards and safeguarding citizen safety.
