This morning, the Red River water level has receded slowly, the water level measured at 7:00 am in Hanoi is 11.20m (0.30m below alarm level 3); and the water level on the Duong River in Hanoi is 10.56m (0.44m below alarm level 3). However, the unit is still coordinating with functional forces to monitor the water level of the Red River and Duong River to detect and promptly handle risks that threaten the safety of Long Bien Bridge and Duong Bridge. Yesterday (September 11), on social networks, a clip was shared of the road surface next to the railway guardrail on a bridge being cracked and shaking during heavy rain, which is very worrying about safety. The leader of Ha Hai Railway Joint Stock Company, the unit managing and ensuring traffic safety on the bridge, said that this image was caused by the weld of the guardrail of square 12 and span 18 downstream, above the Red River dike on the Long Bien side. The unit has checked and discovered it, but due to heavy rain all day, it has not been possible to re-weld it. On the other hand, the location of the broken weld is the railing, not part of the load-bearing structure, so it does not pose a direct threat to traffic. Furthermore, all people and vehicles are currently prohibited from crossing the bridge.
