At about 5:30 p.m. on October 28, on National Highway 28B, through Doc Da village (Phan Son commune, Lam Dong province), landslides continued to occur, causing traffic disruption.
Due to prolonged heavy rain, soil and rocks from the positive slope overflowed into the construction area, making it impossible for vehicles to travel through this location.
Immediately after the incident, the People's Committee of Phan Son commune mobilized police and military forces to coordinate with the construction unit to urgently overcome the situation.
At around 6pm, the road was basically cleared, vehicles could circulate again under the regulation of the authorities.
