    Trưa 28.2, ghi nhận của phóng viên Báo Lao Động tại hiện trường Cầu 30-4 (TP Cần Thơ), nhịp chính của cầu đã bị sập xuống kênh Thốt Nốt, kéo theo phần đuôi xe tải chìm xuống nước.
    At noon on February 28, Lao Dong Newspaper reporters recorded at the scene of 30-4 Bridge (Can Tho City), the main span of the bridge collapsed into the Thot Not canal, dragging the rear of the truck into the water.
    Quan sát cho thấy, xe tải mang biển kiểm soát 65C-041.80 lưu thông qua cầu theo hướng từ phường Trung Nhứt sang phường Thuận Hưng thì gặp sự cố. Nhiều bao gạo văng ra khỏi thùng xe. Hiện tại, số lượng gạo ở dưới sông đang được trục vớt.
    Observations show that a truck with license plate 65C-041. 80 was traveling across the bridge in the direction from Trung Nhut ward to Thuan Hung ward when an incident occurred. Many bags of rice were thrown out of the truck bed. Currently, the amount of rice in the river is being salvaged.
    Ngay sau khi xảy ra vụ việc, lực lượng chức năng nhanh chóng có mặt phong tỏa khu vực, điều tiết giao thông và đảm bảo an toàn hiện trường.
    Immediately after the incident occurred, functional forces quickly arrived to blockade the area, regulate traffic and ensure safety at the scene.
    Anh Lê Hữu Tài (39 tuổi) cho biết, thời điểm xảy ra sự cố có tiếng động lớn, dây cáp và dây điện bị đứt. Lúc đó tài xế tự ra khỏi xe, may mắn thời điểm cầu sập không có phương tiện khác lưu thông qua lại.
    Mr. Le Huu Tai (39 years old) said that at the time of the incident, there was a loud noise, cables and electric wires were broken. At that time, the driver got out of the car himself, fortunately, at the time of the bridge collapse, there were no other vehicles passing by.
    Sự cố khiến giao thông đường bộ giữa hai phường bị chia cắt hoàn toàn. Hàng chục người dân phải quay đầu xe, di chuyển theo lộ trình thay thế cách đó khoảng 3–4km.
    The incident completely cut off road traffic between the two wards. Dozens of people had to turn their cars around and move along the alternative route about 3-4km away.
    Không chỉ đường bộ bị ảnh hưởng, tuyến kênh Thốt Nốt – tuyến vận tải thủy quan trọng chuyên chở lúa gạo và vật tư nông nghiệp của khu vực – cũng tạm thời tê liệt do nhịp cầu chắn ngang dòng chảy. Lực lượng CSGT ở dưới kênh điều tiết giao thông.
    Not only roads are affected, the Thot Not canal - an important waterway transport route specializing in transporting rice and agricultural materials in the region - is also temporarily paralyzed due to the bridge span blocking the flow. Traffic police forces under the canal regulate traffic.
    Ông Lê Hoàng Giang – Phó Chủ tịch phụ trách UBND phường Trung Nhứt thông tin, chính quyền hai địa phương đã phối hợp với các lực lượng chức năng phong tỏa hoàn toàn cầu 30-4, bao gồm cả hai làn xe máy hai bên, đồng thời hướng dẫn người dân lưu thông theo lộ trình thay thế để đảm bảo an toàn.
    Mr. Le Hoang Giang - Vice Chairman in charge of Trung Nhut Ward People's Committee informed that the authorities of the two localities have coordinated with functional forces to completely blockade 30-4 bridge, including both lanes for motorbikes on both sides, and at the same time guide people to travel according to alternative routes to ensure safety.
