(Baonghean.vn) - As storm No. 6 is approaching, we returned to Hoang Mai town after 16 days when the flood in late September and early October had passed, the situation of blocked flow on Hoang Mai river - where traffic works are being built in this area - has not been completely resolved.

On the afternoon of October 17, we returned to the construction site of Hoang Mai 2 Bridge on the North-South Expressway. Below the foot of the bridge, the dirt road that was built across the river had not yet been completely dug up, even though the People's Committee of Hoang Mai town had continuously sent official dispatches urging and reminding the construction units to thoroughly resolve the issue to ensure flood drainage requirements and proactively respond to the developments of storms and floods.

Also located on the Hoang Mai River, on the side of Quynh Phuong Ward, where the coastal road passes through, on the side of the branch (this section of the Hoang Mai River splits into two streams, with a sandbank in the middle), the construction unit has almost completely blocked the river, leaving only a temporary bridge of about 2m for the water to flow through.

In addition, in the Nha Le canal area, the drainage canal for a large area north of Hoang Mai town, where on the morning of September 30 when the floodwaters were at their highest, the local authorities had to ask the construction unit to break the road to drain the water, this area has not yet been completely cleared.
