Islamabad: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) has planned to implement mechanical methods to clean major avenues in the federal capital and to collect garbage door-to-door. This was decided in a recent meeting with CDA Chairman Mr Maroof Afzal in the chair.

The chairman was told that the mechanical methods of sweeping were being introduced at major avenues and that the cleanliness drive would be extended to other sectors such as G-6, G-7, G-8, G-9, G-10 and I-11.

Mr Afzal was also told that the Sanitation Directorate had introduced another project for door-to-door collection of household garbage in Sector I-8 and various vehicles were being used for that purpose.

The meeting also discussed the extension of the door-to-door garbage collection campaign to Sectors F-7 and F-10 and eventually across the federal capital.
