Yesterday morning, the reporter saw at the bridgehead of Beiguan Bridge in Laishui County leading to Yesanpo that the police had set up a cordon to prohibit any vehicles and pedestrians from passing. The usually dry North Juma River is now nearly 400 meters wide and the water level is close to the bottom of the bridge. The muddy and swift river is mixed with all kinds of sundries, causing huge waves, and the rumble is clearly audible 100 meters away. An oil tanker washed upstream was stranded on the dock. A local resident said that his family lived in a relatively high place in the county, but because the river suddenly rose and the drainage was blocked, the water in the street in front of the gate did not reach his thigh at 8 o'clock in the evening. It is the first time that he has lived for decades in such a heavy rain.
According to the person in charge of the flood control and drought relief headquarters in Laishui County, Baoding City, the super heavy rainfall caused serious disasters in five towns in the western mountainous area of the county, namely Zhaogezhuang Town, jiulong town Town, Sanpo Town, Kouxiang Town and Longmen Township. As of 6: 00 pm yesterday, the traffic, communication and power supply in five affected towns were still in a state of interruption, and the specific disaster situation was still being understood.
The bridge collapsed, the road was broken and the traffic was blocked.
Affected by the interruption of roads and communications, the situation of Yesanpo, the largest scenic spot in Laishui County, was once unknown.
Yesterday morning, a staff member of Yesanpo Scenic Area took a dangerous road to bypass Mentougou, Beijing, and returned to Laishui County to report the situation of the scenic spot: the local rainfall started on the morning of July 2 1 Sunday 10, and ended on that night 1 1, with a short interval. Shortly after the formation of mountain torrents, the road leading to the outside of the scenic spot was interrupted. Therefore, although the scenic spot has evacuated tourists after receiving the rainstorm warning, it is estimated that thousands of tourists are still trapped in Yesanpo scenic spot.
The reporter learned at the emergency disaster relief meeting held in Laishui County that the road leading to Yesanpo Scenic Area was interrupted at the junction of Shi Ting Town and Zhang Fang. Because a bridge was washed away, the water surface was wide and the river was swift, vehicles and personnel were temporarily unable to enter the scenic spot. At present, there is only one maritime satellite phone in the scenic spot to keep in touch with the outside world. The preliminary understanding of the scenic spot is that the railway passenger transport from Yesanpo Station to Beijing is running normally, and it can transport about 2,000 tourists every day.
