Do Muou suspension bridge worth 30 billion VND is seriously degraded.

(Baonghean.vn) - After 4 years of use, Do Muou suspension bridge (Do Luong) is now severely degraded, affecting people's travel..

Concrete slabs fell off, exposing the steel core on the bridge deck.

Do Muou suspension bridge across Lam river connecting Boi Son and Bac Son communes was put into use in 2012 with a total construction investment of 30 billion VND. The bridge is 280 m long and 2.6 m wide.

Before this suspension bridge, people in Boi Son and Bac Son communes had to travel by ferry, which was very dangerous. However, since the Do Muou suspension bridge was built, people's travel has become more convenient and contributed to the economic and social development of the locality.

However, after nearly 4 years of use, the bridge is now degraded. The concrete layer on the bridge surface has peeled off in many sections, leaving only steel cores, creating 10cm wide gaps, and the bridgehead on the Boi Son commune side has sunk, posing a danger to vehicles traveling across this suspension bridge.

The bridge is unsafe for people and vehicles.

Although the bridge is designed to have a load capacity of 2.5 tons, every day, homemade agricultural vehicles carrying soil and sand exceeding the permitted load still openly circulate on this suspension bridge. Near the area near the foot of the Do Muou suspension bridge, sand mining is prohibited, but recently there have been ships without lights and numbers brazenly illegally sucking sand and gravel at the bridge's foot, affecting the bridge. Although the Do Muou suspension bridge has been degraded, the daily traffic of people and vehicles passing through the bridge is very large, posing many potential risks.
