“We have observed that the community is accepting and implementing the laws issued to prevent pollution,” said Addis Ababa City Mayor Adanech Abebe. 

The mayor said, “For the past two days, we have toured and assessed the performance of the eight corridors that are being developed in our city in Phase 2, together with all the corridor development coordinators.”

“The second phase of the corridor development work includes the construction of 135 kilometers of roads, 42 kilometers of riverbank development, 431 hectares of green development, and the modernization of the existing transportation system in our city. In addition to the work we are doing, it also includes the construction of parking lots and terminals with a capacity of more than 23,320 cars, the construction of 112 public restrooms, the renovation of 2,669 buildings, children's playgrounds, sports facilities, public recreation plazas, pedestrian and bicycle paths, and it is a large-scale project that has created job opportunities for more than 62,000 residents of our city,” he said.

“We are implementing the sewage disposal system at a high level by enacting laws and regulations that were polluting the city and causing serious negative impacts on the health of the people,” he added.

They also noted that the community is implementing the laws issued to prevent pollution in order to create a clean Addis Ababa by preventing river pollution. 

The mayor, who noted that the city administration is punishing entities that have not built and repaired their sewage disposal systems within the given time limit, said: “More than punishment, we want our people to implement the sewage disposal system and pollution prevention for their own health, so I call on all of us to make this effort.”

“I would like to thank our city residents, investors, and government and private institutions, including our residents who are supporting us by renovating buildings, changing colors, and installing lighting according to the city’s standards, on behalf of myself and our city administration,” she said.

"In the remaining time, we will complete the work that needs to be completed quickly, support those that need to be supported, and in line with our promise to serve our people faithfully, we will complete the second phase of the corridor development and open it for service," he wrote on his social media page.
