general Services
Sanitation Services
One of the most crucial mandatory tasks involves cleaning operations within the shrine area, pathways, and public spaces accessible to visitors. Last year’s efforts included cleanup over approximately 10,000 square meters at six distinct locations using 27 garbage trucks supplied in partnership with Baghdad and Tehran authorities. More than nine tons of waste were collected during these operations.
The number of waste bins reached 535 around the shrine courtyard and surrounding areas, with an additional 136 bins placed in pilgrim housing complexes. To enhance environmental sanitation, various service vehicles were deployed: 17 sweepers, 5 dust suction machines, 2 carpet cleaning vehicles, 3 water pumps, as well as 7 cargo trucks and motorcycles each for transport support.
Welfare Services
The shrine also ensured comfort for Arbaeen pilgrims by installing cooling systems, air ventilation equipment, and potable water facilities across its premises. Last year saw production of up to 60 thousand liters of drinking water via six separate pipelines from a dedicated factory affiliated with the Alawi Holy Shrine. In total, approximately 500 water coolers were installed throughout courtyards and shrine areas.
Considering high temperatures during Arbaeen days, special emphasis was placed on equipping different sections within the shrine precincts-surrounding streets; pilgrim housing compounds-and stations along walking routes with cooling fans (635 units), air blowers (10 units), and mist sprayers (117 units) for enhanced comfort.
Internet Services
The Alawi Shrine upgraded internet provision quality last year for visitors’ convenience. Some 110,966 pilgrims used free internet access via networks established thru installation of 68 routers at eight locations inside and around holy sites. Additionally,securing safety measures involved installing more than three thousand closed-circuit cameras monitoring various points within pilgrimage zones.
Transportation Services
Smoothing pilgrim mobility remains one critical challenge during mass visits like Arbaeen.The Alawi Holy Shrine prioritized transportation facilities last year by deploying a total fleet numbering exactly 507 vehicles stationed across eight parking sites. Of these vehicles,specialized fleets comprising 263 busesand minibuses exclusively served transporting pilgrims; cumulatively moving a reported 62 ,890 passengers through these means alone .Operational support fleets included garbage trucks,tanker trucks supplying water,waste disposal vehicles,and treatment tankers totaling 38 service vehicles.Additionally used equipment featured 226 public transport cars, alongside an emergency medical fleet including 14 ambulances plus firefighting machinery numbering 12 fire engines deployed strategically throughout event zones .
Healthcare Services
A essential aspect accompanying vast pilgrimages is providing robust health care coverage -statistics from last year demonstrate substantive effective contributions conducted under supervisory auspices linked directly with al-Holy al-Alawy:
total patient intakes logged stood at around277 ,227 cases .These treatments took place primarily through eight clinics staffed continuously with seventy-five doctors catering round-the-clock medical needs.Heritages escalated-approximately twelve thousand urgent referrals involving emergency response teams transporting critical patients onward while others received onsite care.Last year’s peak daily visit milestone was recorded on Day fifteen after Muharram reaching over thirty-one thousand consultations while fatality remained minimal involving only one reported incident.This data will help inform resource deployment planning going forward.Practically distributed pharmaceutical inventory consisted roughly sixteen-five medication types while available inpatient capacities tallied just above hundred fifteen beds.Additional surveillance initiatives accounted numerous professional safety checks tallying near one-thousand,further assessing food safety inspections approaching three-hundred fifty occurrences carried out systematically throughout respective sites.
