A number of residents of the Western District in the city of Irbid have renewed their demands to the Greater Irbid Municipality, stressing the need to provide fair treatment to their areas and include their main and secondary neighborhoods and streets in hot asphalt mix projects.
Abu Samer Al-Widian, Mohammad Al-Subaihi, Abu Ahmad Bani Hamad, Ayman Shraideh, and Salman Al-Ghazawi explained that the neighborhoods where they reside have witnessed significant urban and population expansion over the past years, yet basic services, primarily road paving, have not kept pace with this urban growth.
They called on the Greater Irbid Municipality to urgently include the Western District neighborhoods in hot asphalt mix projects, with a focus on the street extending from the Zubda school area towards the west, which suffers from severe deterioration, in addition to removing the accumulations of debris and waste scattered in several locations in the area and cleaning them to facilitate traffic and organize the neighborhood's environment.
For his part, the municipality's media spokesperson, Ghaith Al-Tal, explained that the door is open for citizens to visit the Engineering Directorate and submit official requests that include the names of the streets and locations that need paving or maintenance.
He pointed out that all submitted requests are subject to engineering studies and rigorous technical standards to assess the current situation and include the most damaged roads in future paving plans and the priority schedule approved by the municipality, according to available capabilities and budgets.
Al-Tal explained that the municipality is currently implementing a tender worth 2.5 million dinars in the area, and the ongoing work includes operations in Wadi Zubda adjacent to Wadi Al-Suraij.
