The location of the landslide is at km 6, Ha Long - Cam Pha coastal road, in Quang Hanh ward, Quang Ninh province.
According to Mr. Le Quang Tien - Vice Chairman of Quang Hanh Ward People's Committee, the rocky mountain collapsed this afternoon; the initial cause was due to the heavy rain in recent days due to the erosion.
At that time, the road was deserted, so there were no unfortunate incidents. At the scene, some large rocks, weighing up to tons, fell onto the road. The remaining part of the rocky mountain also looks very shaky, with the risk of landslides at any time.
Immediately after receiving the information, the People's Committee of the ward mobilized functional forces to coordinate traffic, clear the rock and soil and plan to move the rock to another place.
Not long before, a landslide occurred in Quang Hanh ward, affecting traffic.
Quang Hanh ward is a ward with a large number of limestone mountains. On the roads, there are limestone mountains in the residential area. In particular, the Ha Long - Cam Pha coastal route - one of the most beautiful coastal routes in the country - runs through the limestone mountains on land and the limestone mountain ranges in the buffer zone of Ha Long Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay.
There have been some landslides in Ha Long Bay before, mainly due to the erosion and heavy rain and storms.
