Parks and squares of St. Petersburg opened earlier than usual

Parks and squares of St. Petersburg were opened for walking earlier than usual — starting on April 20. They are usually kept closed to dry until the very end of April, the press service of the city improvement committee reports.

The restrictions were lifted ahead of schedule due to the unusually dry and sunny weather. The ground and paths have already dried out enough, so the flow of citizens will not harm the alleys.

Public spaces have already been prepared for the reception of guests. At the same time, a number of large venues, in particular the Moscow Victory Park, were not closed at all. This is due to the important routes to the metro and stops that pass through the territory of the green zone.

Meanwhile, the general cleaning in the Northern capital continues, writes 78.ru . The committee also thanked the residents of St. Petersburg who hold clean-up days in parks and gardens.
