At Biosk, the pumps of the fountain in the park "Pribrzhny" are undergoing a replacement process.
The much-loved fountain in Riviera Park, a beloved landmark in Biysk, is set to reopen after undergoing repairs and maintenance. The city administration's press service announced the start of the work, which includes the replacement of two pumps powering the fountain.
The repairs come as a result of equipment failure, with the head of the company maintaining the city's fountains, Eugene Serebryakov, attributing the breakdowns to a combination of natural wear and tear and mechanical damage. However, Eugene Dmitrievich from the same company highlighted that misuse by children and teenagers, such as blocking nozzles, riding bicycles and scooters in the basin, and throwing foreign objects into the water, have also contributed to the expensive repairs.
To prevent algae growth and ensure the fountain's cleanliness, the water is treated with special reagents. After the pump replacement and cleaning, the fountain will be operational again, providing coolness on hot days as before. It's important to note that swimming in the fountain is prohibited, as stated by the city hall.
Eugene Dmitrievich urged the public to treat the fountain with care, reminding everyone that it is not only an adornment but also provides a refreshing respite during the hot summer months. Once the fountain is operational again, it will once again delight the citizens of Biysk.
For those seeking more detailed information about the restoration, including any changes made or the objectives of the project, local news websites, city official websites, and social media forums are excellent resources. These platforms often provide insights into community projects and restorations.
In the spirit of preserving and enhancing the charm of Biysk, responsible outdoor-living, such as avoiding damaging the fountain's facilities, is encouraged. Post-repair, the refurbished fountain promises to reclaim its position as a home-and-garden centerpiece, serving as a beautiful oasis amidst the city's landscape.
