In Sochi began pilot operation of the garbage truck on methane

In Sochi, a gas-engine garbage truck was transferred for testing for three months, which will work on the route “Transportskaya Street – Krasnaya Polyana”.

According to the city administration, special equipment was made with a cab and chassis of the AMT brand. The machine is equipped with a superstructure for mechanized loading, compaction and transportation of solid municipal waste.

The new garbage truck received the city enterprise "Profiservice", which is engaged in the collection and removal of MSW. During the pilot operation, specialists will evaluate how the equipment behaves in mountainous areas. The use of methane, according to the administration, helps reduce emissions and reduce fuel costs.

Earlier it was reported that in Sochi 30 cars were sent to a special parking lot for improper parking.
