Rapid rise of Hong River triggers flooding in Hanoi

09/10/2024 11:01 | TTXVN |

Torrential rain from Typhoon Yagi across the northern region and the release of water from hydropower reservoirs further upstream have caused the Hong (Red) River water level to rise rapidly, reaching the first warning level at 9.5m and flooding residential areas along the riverbanks in the capital city of Hanoi. On September 10, Hanoi Department of Transport announced that passenger coach buses with over 9 seats and freight vehicles heavier than 0.5 tonnes are banned from traveling on Chuong Duong Bridge (completed in 1983) in the wake of the bridge collapse that killed eight people in Phu Tho province. The decision has come into effect since 8.30am. Rising floodwater in other northern localities were also reported. VNA Photo
