(Dan Tri) - An elementary school in Da Nang city has opened its gate for people to bring cars and motorbikes to park to avoid flooding that could be caused by storm Fangshen.

According to forecasts, storm Fangshen (storm No. 12) will cause heavy rain and widespread flooding. Vo Thi Sau Primary School (Hai Chau Ward, Da Nang City) has opened its doors to help people avoid flooding for cars and motorbikes.

The announcement posted on the school's Fanpage on October 22 quickly received hundreds of shares and thanks from the online community, showing solidarity and mutual support in difficult times.

According to forecasts, from the afternoon of October 22, Da Nang will experience heavy rain due to the impact of storm No. 12, with the potential risk of deep flooding in many low-lying areas. Recognizing its high location, which was "steady" during the historic rain on October 14, 2022, Vo Thi Sau Primary School is a safe haven for local people.

A representative of the school's Board of Directors said that cars being flooded would cause great property damage. Therefore, the school decided to open the school gates for people to park their cars to avoid unnecessary losses.

The school also carefully reminded people to move slowly, park their vehicles neatly according to the security guard's instructions and leave a contact phone number. Parking is completely free.
