On Le Hong Phong Street, the cables were not neatly collected after the storm, causing a loss of urban beauty. Mr. Nguyen Van Tinh, a resident living on this street, worried: "It's dark, many black cables, if you're not careful, it's easy to get tangled in them, there have been cases of people falling because the cables fell across the road."

At the intersection of Tue Tinh and Nguyen Sy Sach streets, the cables were lying on the road after the storm and have not been collected yet. According to research, telecommunication cables are managed by many different units and network operators. Many cable lines have no clear owner, and when an incident occurs, it takes a long time to determine responsibility for handling it. Photo: QA

According to urban infrastructure experts, to completely resolve the problem of sagging cables, there needs to be a unified management mechanism. All cable routes must be reviewed and their owners must be clearly listed. Abandoned cables must be resolutely dismantled to avoid the existence of dangerous “ghost cables”. In addition, localities need to speed up the progress of undergrounding telecommunications infrastructure in inner-city areas. Photo: QA

On Nguyen Viet Xuan Street, people used bamboo poles to prop up cables that had been broken after the storm, helping traffic flow. However, this was only a temporary solution. Photo: QA

It is known that, immediately after the storm, network operators mobilized forces to fix, reconnect transmission lines, bundle and recover broken and sagging cables. However, with the above situation, units need to increase human resources to handle the situation thoroughly as soon as possible, to avoid unfortunate incidents. Photo: QA
