The municipal institution 'Pilsētsaimniecība' of Jelgava has announced that the maintenance of the lawn in Rainis Park will now be handled by two robotic lawn mowers. The change is intended to make the upkeep of the city's green areas more efficient and allow the municipality to devote more attention to mowing its own properties.

Automated park maintenance

The robotic mowers are expected to work in Rainis Park, one of Jelgava's public green spaces. The machines will carry out grass cutting on their own, reducing the need for manual work in this area. The municipality explains this step as part of an effort to organise city maintenance more effectively and redirect available resources to other mowing tasks.

Residents asked to cooperate

The institution has asked residents not to interfere with the robotic mowers. Anyone present in the park should allow the machines to move freely and perform their work. The request is meant to ensure both the uninterrupted operation of the equipment and the successful upkeep of the lawn.

The announcement says the robotic mowers are part of the city's territory maintenance solution. Jelgava's municipal authorities have informed the public about the development, stressing that the main goal is better care of city properties.
