Stairway restoration in Vladivostok ordered by court, following a successful prosecution case
Court Orders Repair of Dangerous Staircase in Vladivostok
In a recent ruling, a court in Vladivostok has ordered the city administration to repair a damaged pedestrian staircase on Tolstoy Street. The decision comes after the Leninsky District Prosecutor's Office took action against the city administration for failing to address safety violations on the staircase.
The inspection, conducted by the prosecutor's office, found that the staircase was in poor condition and did not meet safety requirements. The court's decision was prompted by a lawsuit initiated due to complaints about broken steps and missing handrails.
The court ruled in favour of the prosecutor's office, declaring the city administration's inaction as illegal. The court order mandates the repair of the staircase to ensure the safety of its users.
However, the court decision regarding the repair of the pedestrian staircase on Tolstoy Street has not yet entered into force. The supervisory authority will monitor the implementation of the court decision and the actual restoration of the staircase to ensure compliance.
Earlier, the Mayor of Vladivostok received a report from the prosecutor's office due to the dangerous condition of a staircase near house No.56 on Admiral Yumashev Street. Despite the report, the administration did not take necessary measures to address the violations.
As of now, there is no publicly available detailed information on judicial enforcement or repair status of pedestrian staircases specifically on Tolstoy Street or Admiral Yumashev Street in Vladivostok. For precise updates on this issue, it is recommended to consult local Vladivostok municipal sources, official city government announcements, or regional news outlets that cover urban infrastructure developments and court decisions in that area.
During the hearing, the court imposed a policy-and-legislation order directing the city administration to correct the unsafe staircase on Tolstoy Street, highlighting the crucial role of politics in ensuring safety. The order comes in response to general-news reports about the broken steps and missing handrails, stressing the importance of adhering to the law and maintaining safe infrastructure.
