Gia Lai: Temporary underground traffic overflow flooded, isolating 341 households

On the evening of August 31, Mr. Le Tien Manh, Chairman of the People's Committee of Ia Pa commune (Gia Lai province), said that after nearly 11 hours of urgent repair, the Mo Nang 2 spillway was temporarily opened to traffic, ensuring travel for hundreds of local households.

Police force and people join in overcoming

Previously, due to heavy rains lasting from noon on August 29 to the morning of August 30, the Mo Nang 2 spillway was deeply flooded and severely eroded, completely cutting off Mo Nang 2 village with 341 households. Although the water receded later, it was still deep, people could only walk, greatly affecting their daily life and production.

Spillway is heavily eroded

At around 7:30 a.m. on August 31, when the water had completely receded, the commune mobilized 50 people including police, local residents and 3 vehicles to reinforce and level the underground surface. By 6 p.m. the same day, the route was temporarily repaired and traffic could resume.

Rock truck for underground reinforcement

Mr. Manh said the spillway has only been temporarily reinforced, and if heavy rain continues, it could be further damaged. The commune has requested that higher authorities soon allocate funds to invest in permanent reinforcement to ensure long-term safety for the people.

HAPPY
