A large-scale clean-up was organized in Pionersky Square with support from Nizhniy Tagil Council. Over 70 employees of Uralvagonzavod Scientific Production Corporation took part in the event.

For two days, the workers picked up all the litter, mowed the lawns, and painted the benches. All the costs related to the organization and coordination of the clean-up were covered by the plant’s trade union committee.

Such jobs aimed at the reclamation of Pionersky Square are expected to continue. Within two weeks, new benches and trash bins will be installed along the pedestrian walks, and the lighting system will be restored in the future as well.

Uralvagonzavod Scientific Production Corporation also suggested introducing security staff to the square and helping with the restoration of the central fountain and the sculptures (a figure of a horn blower, that of a drummer boy, those of some pioneers making the saluting gesture, and that of a mother with a child in her arms). These sculptures were a part of Pionersky Square when it was opened in 1951, but became worn out with time and were dismantled about two decades ago.
