After Storm Alex people quickly became aware of the scarcity and difficulties to do with the Principality&#8217;s water supply. Since then, at the request of the DAU, the SMA has rethought its cleaning methods, taking the environment and limited resources into consideration.<\/p>\n\n<p>While a few years ago the streets were cleaned using plenty of water, today more economical techniques are being sought, such as high pressure washers and scrubbers, for example. The scrubbers, equipped with water recovery systems, have significantly reduced water consumption.<\/p>\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"999\" src=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/cantonnier-sma-monaco-1024x999.jpg\" alt=\"cantonnier-sma-monaco\" class=\"wp-image-239198\" style=\"width:898px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/cantonnier-sma-monaco-1024x999.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.monaco-tribune.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/cantonnier-sma-monaco-307x300.jpg 307w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">\u00a9 SMA<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<p><i>&#8220;We have spaced washes out, but we are aware that there is dirt to be dealt with every day, so we have therefore equipped the maintenance workers with small battery-powered power washers to deal with small jobs.&#8221; <\/i>\u00a0explains Marie B\u00e9rard. Each worker has a water meter so that consumption can be monitored.<\/p>\n\n<p>Also, for environmental reasons, only water is used to clean everyday dirt.

This makes it possible to <i>&#8220;use water that is adequate for road cleaning while reducing the use of drinking water, since the water from the Vallon goes out to sea anyway,&#8221; <\/i>\u00a0says Ms. B\u00e9rard.<\/p>\n\n<p>The recent changes have halved water consumption over the past two years.<\/p>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-lutter-contre-les-incivilites-un-enjeu-majeur\">Anti-social behaviour: a major challenge<\/h2>\n\n<p>One of the real scourges when it comes to urban cleanliness is undoubtedly urine and dog droppings. To remedy this, the DAU has installed 200 &#8216;poop&#8217; bag dispensers all around the country. These bags, which are free of charge and easily accessible, enable dog owners to pick up afteer their pets. The bags are also available free of charge at the bySMEG shop at 11 All\u00e9e Guillaume Apollinaire.<\/p>\n\n<p>In addition, the Principality already has 900 litter bins throughout the territory where the used bags can be disposed of. Four dog parks have also been created, specially for our canine companions&#8217; needs.
