Klaipėda Residents Complain of Noise, Dust from Persistent Construction Site

Residents of Paris Komuna Street in Klaipėda are enduring persistent disturbances from a construction site, despite the street's own reconstruction being completed over six months ago. They report daily noise and dust starting as early as 7 a.m., along with heavy vehicles tracking mud and dirt onto the newly paved road.

The surrounding residents are once again forced to endure noise and dust. Furthermore, heavy machinery is damaging the newly repaired street.

The site, located at Paris Komuna Street 16A, is reportedly used for storing construction waste, soil, and heavy machinery by the company "Plungės lagūna." Residents are frustrated that the area continues to be heavily utilized long after the street repairs concluded, leading to ongoing disruption and damage to their environment.

Klaipėda Municipality officials, however, found no violations during their inspection. Albinas Misevičius, head of the Administrative Activities, Control, and Prevention Department, stated that the land is managed by the Klaipėda City Sports Base Management Center and the Klaipėda Football School under a usage agreement, negating the need for additional permits. "During the inspection, the streets around the site were clean, no construction noise was heard, and no violations were found," Misevičius commented.
