People were holding posters with slogans: “resign Bykov! [head of Kirov Vladimir Bykov]”, “the Mayor is — there are no roads”, “Spring — the road is gone”, “Stop stealing!”.
Party vanishing motorist Andrew Dabich admitted that driving on the roads in our area would be:
— I’m constantly doing suspension, wheels and much because of this curse. If you do not come to such events, even extras, just stand up, nothing will change. If nothing is done — will be even worse.
Agreed participant Anna krinitsyna. She is outraged by the condition of the roads, so are unable to ignore the similarity.
On Nekrasov street to the children’s clinic not to travel: one lane’s blocked by a wooden triangle, and we now have the “opposite” to leave, with the kids! — emotionally explained the girl. — Have accumulated a lot, I just could not come. If we all go out — the result will be.
According to participant Alexander Rykov, the problem can be solved one way — more often to invite to Kirov Russian President Vladimir Putin or Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev.
— If to us will drive at least some of their high-ranking entourage quickly patch up all the holes. In the cities, where they often look, perfect roads. — he said in comments to “7×7”.
Civil activist, organizer of meeting Vitaly Bramm urged the audience to join in the monitoring of road conditions:
As said the Governor, Nikita Belykh, “roads of Kirov is the face of the Kirov region”. Sorry, Nikita Yurievich, but that’s not the face is the other part of the body! We have GOST to pit: 60 cm long, 15 cm wide and 5 cm deep. If at least one parameter is broken — it needs to close up. All pits are not suitable for guests, but not repaired. Why? Because everyone is silent. Each of us only need to send a statement to the police, they will check, measure, draw up a report and will write to the city administration ordered to fix the road surface. In 10 days they should do it no matter you have money or not!
As said the Governor, Nikita Belykh, “roads of Kirov is the face of the Kirov region”. Sorry, Nikita Yurievich, but that’s not the face is the other part of the body!
In turn, the Deputy of legislative Assembly of the Kirov region Dmitry Russian noted the low turnout of participants. In his view, if the number of dissatisfied situation will increase to 25-30 thousand, only then can we achieve results.
— Our city is, sorry, crap and shit, he said in comments to “7×7”. For nine years the head of the city Vladimir Bykov himself in a good way not shown. Always problems: major repairs, roads, education system. We should put forward the main demand: the resignation of the mayor. If there is not 400 people, and tens of thousands, only then can we hear the presidential administration of the Russian Federation and will take action. The current government — a “temporary worker” she will go from here. And we’ll be here to live. Housing in Kirov anymore. And we have to defend. We will save mass and activity.
In his speech, he assured the citizens that the deputies in regional assemblies who are not afraid to speak the truth, and will continue to advocate for the abolition of the vehicle tax.
The Deputy agreed, the entrepreneur Bagir Sharifov. He was confident that the situation can be corrected only social solidarity and unanimity.
— I’m not impressed personal liability neither the mayor nor Governor, nor President Putin, — he began his speech. — Maybe he will pay attention not only to the Crimea and the Donbass, but also in Kirov? And we, to put it mildly, hostilities between the government, which “now is” money, and people who drive cars and walk on them. I don’t care what name the Governor or mayor, what’s important is to have the roads so we can fully live.
Then one of the participants proposed to demand the resignation of the mayor. The audience supported this idea by clapping and whistling.
At the gathering were made by the Deputy of legislative Assembly Nikolay Dubravin, Chairman of the Union of carriers “Vyatka” Valeriy says, and the active motorists.
In conclusion, Vitaly Bramm read the resolution. The organizers demanded from the authorities to provide additional targeted funds for current and capital repairs in Kirov, introduce video surveillance in the repair of roads, and on the administration website create a section for public control over their repair (where will be placed all competitions for repairs, schedule of works). Governor Nikita Belykh offered to take personal control of the condition of the roads, and the officials are to publicly report on the state roads every year. In addition, one of the requirements of resolution — cancellation of the transport tax. The resolution with signatures of citizens sent to President Vladimir Putin, the state Duma, legislative Assembly of the Kirov region Nikita Belykh and the and Vladimir Bykov.
