In addition, public works, monuments and parks are being repaired and renovated to wear a new "shirt" on the occasion of new Spring. Particularly, the City People's Committee has completed the pavement patching and barrier installment around the March 10^th Square. The city is also repairing the fountain system, decorating led system and five electronic welcome gates. Public lighting system at some roads, Six-way Roundabout and March 10^th Square has been replaced by new light bulbs to ensure higher illumination. The decorative power system is also additionally installed on many central streets with 49 light string wrapped on areca trees, 700 lights on green trees, 26 sets of metal headlights, 500 colored plastic balls with compact lights, etc. Besides, Dak Lak Urban and Environment Co., Ltd is pruning green trees on the street, taking care of coffee tree pots on the sidewalk, repainting all flowerpots and adding 250 new flowerpots in public areas.

At the same time, the City People's Committee urged the units in cleanup, waste collection and transport, not to let waste remain on roadbeds, sidewalks, public works and especially at markets and roads for selling flowers and ornamental plants. Communes and wards actively should mobilize the people to decorate and refurbish their houses, maintain environmental sanitation in residential areas, raise the sense of responsibility of urban residents. At the same time, the People's Committees of the wards and the city's functional forces should also intensify the inspection, handling and sanctioning according to their competence to limit violations, thus adversely affecting urban space.

Especially, to create focal points for Ky Hoi Spring, TP. Buon Ma Thuot has mobilized funds to continue building the flower street with a length of 180 m on the right of Nguyen Tat Thanh street (from Six-way Roundabout). The theme of flower arrangement and small landscape layout is closely associated with the economic and social development of the city, the province and the animal designation of 2019, creating a vivid, harmonious picture with a sense of joyful Spring. As a new feature compared to the previous year, the flower street is linked to the Coffee Book Street at No. 2 Phan Chu Trinh alley, with many unique mural paintings. These locations promises to be a place to attract many people and visitors to visit and "check in" to save their Spring journey.
