Recently, some netizens posted that there is a suspected separation at the junction of a railway bridge at the southwest corner of Longchuan Road and Susong Road at Hefei South Station, posing a safety hazard.
After learning about it, the Hefei Urban and Rural Development Bureau immediately arranged professional personnel in the field of bridges to conduct on-site inspections and inspections. After verification, the netizen reported that the "gap at the bridge connection" was at the position of the bridge expansion joint, where water seeped into the bridge pier and formed water stains, rather than cracks and separation on the bridge pier. The bridge has no safety issues. After contacting the bridge maintenance unit, the Hefei Railway Works Section, personnel will be arranged to promptly treat the water stains. Thank you to the netizens for their concern.
