In order to effectively complete the long-term management of environmental sanitation
in the jurisdiction and further improve the living environment, Longmian Street has
recently organized personnel to desilt and rectify the river channels of the Longmian
section of the Gaoqiao River to ensure that the rivers are clean and smooth and it
will play its flood prevention and drainage function normally.
Gaoqiao River is 4.8 kilometers long in Longmian Street and flows through Taiping
Community, Huanggang Village and Dongsheng Village. This cleanup is mainly
aimed at silt, black odorous water bodies, dead weeds, river channels and litter
along the river. Due to the serious accumulation of silt in the river course and the
large amount of construction waste, it is difficult to clean up. The staffs first
transported the river trash and silt to the fixed place on the river bank by using
silt curtains and then by hand or with a shovel and other tools, and concentrated
cleaning. Then the sludge pump and water pump perform cleaning. The villagers
who watched the scene all praised the water quality of the river.
