(ĐN)- On March 2, an interdisciplinary delegation led by Vice Chairman of Bien Hoa city People's Committee Nguyen Tan Long patrolled Vo Thi Sau street and handed out penalties for illegal encroachment by street vendors, vehicles and construction work on city pavements.

Accordingly, the delegation dealt with the illegal occupancy of sidewalks. Particularly, the advertising boards, decorative statues and flower pots on pavements were seized; some food and drink vendors who placed their tables on the walkways were fined and had their furniture confiscated.

“We will make regular patrols on these streets to prevent repeated offenses," said Vice Chairman Nguyen Tan Long. "The effort will be extended to other routes in the near future.”

He also stressed that the effort to reclaim public space on the city’s pavements will require both direct action from local authorities and cooperation from citizens. Therefore, to avoid being penalized, locals should voluntarily clear the pavements.
