Jerusalem sanitation workers are literally working double time with yomtov approaching. The city has begun cleaning neighborhoods as well as paying special attention to areas that will attract many visitors during yomtov.

Deputy Mayor Rav Yitzchak Pindrus, who holds the sanitation portfolio, told reporters that cleaning the city is a high priority ahead of yomtov.

In past years, city sanitation workers were out in force with a special focus placed on chareidi areas.
