Vinh City: Post Office Bridge reopens to traffic

The rain that lasted from the night of December 7 to December 8 caused a large area of ​​subsidence on the road surface at the Old Post Office Bridge (the intersection of Le Viet Thuat and Phung Chi Kien streets). After the incident, the Vinh City People's Committee directed relevant units to urgently fix the problem.

Post Office Bridge is a high traffic point in Vinh City. After the incident, traffic congestion on the bypass roads often occurs, causing difficulties for Vinh City residents when traveling through here. The authorities often have to be on duty to direct traffic on Phung Chi Kien Street when Le Viet Thuat Street is closed to cars to handle the incident.

According to the reporter's observation, although only half of the bridge is open to traffic, vehicles traveling through here are quite convenient.

Mr. Nguyen Quoc Thang - Head of Vinh Urban Management Department said: "The construction units have made efforts to open the bridge to traffic before the New Year and have opened it on the evening of December 28. Although only half of the bridge has been opened to traffic, it has reduced traffic volume at this hot spot. The remaining half of the bridge will be completed by the traffic units as soon as possible in the near future"./.
