The CEPEP company collected 25,120 bags of garbage between March 1-5 around the Queen’s Park Savannah and downtown Port of Spain (PoS) as they ensured that patrons and revellers could enjoy the Carnival festivities without the nuisance of mounds of garbage lining the roadway.
In a statement on March 5, CEPEP said 35 contractors and approximately 1,050 contractors’ workers were deployed during cleanup exercises. Areas covered included the parade route on Carnival Tuesday from St James, Mucurapo Road, St Clair Avenue, Tragarete Road, Woodbrook and around the Queen’s Park Savannah.
It said by 12 am on Ash Wednesday morning all areas covered were free of garbage and any sign that Carnival festivities had taken place hours earlier.
