Nizhny Novgorod residents are complaining en masse about the quality of snow removal in the courtyards.

      Residents of Nizhny Novgorod are massively complaining that representatives of DUKs (management companies) are doing a poor job of clearing snow after the bad weather. Such messages are appearing on the social media accounts of Governor Gleb Nikitin.

      According to users, at some addresses special equipment did not arrive at all, despite appeals to the management companies. Complaints are coming not only from the capital of the Volga region but also from other cities and settlements.

      Requests to the management company about snow removal were submitted a week ago, after the previous snowfall; the equipment never came, the snow was not cleared, and now there is another snowfall, the yard is completely drifted over, it is impossible to walk or drive a car! — notes Viktoria N., residing in Dzerzhinsk.
