Jeddah Municipality platform records 45,000 e-contracts
Jeddah Municipality’s Madinaty city management platform recorded 45,659 electronic contracts between waste producers and transporters during the first quarter of this year.
And the number of platform users among producers reached more than 41,600.
A report issued by the municipality’s Madinaty center revealed collection and transport movements of over 1.6 million tons of commercial waste, while 40,611 containers were monitored.
The center’s director general, Abdullah Al-Ghamdi, said the platform’s unified tracking system could issue notices and alerts electronically, such as for entry into prohibited or controlled areas.
He pointed out that the platform improved procedures for monitoring and controlling commercial and construction waste via links to systems for building permits, excavations, and project coordination.
Platform monitoring also helped to protect the environment from the mixing of waste materials, he added.
