Heat Workers Vow to Fix Pipe After Orenburg Street Collapse
Heat network workers promise to replace the pipe on Montazhnikov Street within hours after students fell into boiling water.
Specialists from Orenburg Heat Networks will help replace one and a half meters of pipe with a diameter of 76 millimeters on Montazhnikov Street, where today two citizens were scalded in boiling water.
As already reported by 56.RU, the heat pipeline is owned by a nearby industrial enterprise.
— We joined in solving the problem at the request of the city leadership and the network owner. There are 15 people and 5 units of equipment on site. The repair is complicated by steam and poor visibility, but we plan to complete the work within a few hours, — said the press service of T Plus.
Recall that after the ground collapse, a criminal case has been initiated. It is under the supervision of the prosecutor of Orenburg Region, Ruslan Medvedev. The section of Montazhnikov Street will be closed to traffic until February 27. The consequences of the emergency are being monitored by Orenburg Mayor Albert Yumadilov and Governor Yevgeny Solntsev.
