CITY Hall will step up efforts to clear some drains along a back alley in the central business district of Kota Kinabalu, including those around a bin centre and beneath a pavement nearby.

The agency has also urged the government concessionaire to exercise similar diligence in attending to the frontyard drains in one part of a Luyang neighbourhood, while its Engineering Department decides whether to have the gradient for these structures rebuilt.This follows separate feedback from a shop operator on Lorong Bank and a homeowner on Lorong Unta 11 about the nuisance created by the foul smell coming into the premises.

“Ten of our workers spent a good two hours that afternoon de-sludging the drain which services the bin-centre, as well as the covered one” he said. “Such maintenance is carried out at each of our bin-centres in Kota Kinabalu regularly.” “He and his workers pay special attention to getting rid of any traces of leachate from these sites.”

Some of the residents seemed to think that the stagnant water may have contributed to dengue concerns in the neighbourhood, according to him, after a banner on how to prevent Aedes mosquitoes from breeding in the area was put up in the area.
