The Sierra Leone Police have intensified cleanup operations at Mends and Earl Street in central Freetown as part of ongoing efforts to remove abandoned vehicles, unlicensed garages, and other hazards that pose risks to public safety and contribute to urban filth.
Police officers have so far cleared more than ten abandoned vehicles, broken chairs, containers placed dangerously close to the main road, and other debris obstructing traffic flow. The operation is aimed at improving road safety, reducing the risk of accidents, and creating a cleaner, more organized environment for residents and commuters.
Authorities have called for community cooperation, urging residents and business owners to maintain their surroundings and refrain from placing objects on public roads that could endanger lives or block access. The police warned that similar enforcement actions will continue across Freetown to address unsafe and unsightly conditions in public spaces.
The initiative underscores the Sierra Leone Police’s commitment to maintaining public order, enhancing safety, and promoting hygiene within the city. Members of the public have been encouraged to support the effort to ensure safer, cleaner, and more navigable streets.
The police have further assured the public that operations will persist until Mends and Earl Street, along with other identified high-risk areas, are fully cleared and properly maintained, reaffirming their focus on citizen safety and community well-being.
