Already on the 48th day, damage is continuing across the country in the rainy season going up and down in the southern and central regions, and even a typhoon is coming to the Korean Peninsula. You need to prepare in advance for not only torrential rains but also strong winds. First, I will connect a reporter on the Han River Submarine Bridge to check the situation on the way to work and learn more about typhoons.

Reporter Kim Sang-min, It doesn't seem like it rained that much overnight. Is there any change in the water level of Jamsu Bridge?

<Reporter> The

water level of Jamsu Bridge, which reached 9m at the night of the 9th, decreased slightly during the night and is about 8.5m.

At one point in the morning of yesterday, it went down to 6.7m, which is close to the level of vehicle passage, but the amount of discharge from Paldang Dam, which directly affects the water level in the central region, has increased slightly, and then the water is gradually draining.

There is no peace of mind that the water level has dropped.

Paldang Dam still flows nearly 8,000 tons of water per second down the Han River.

In addition, up to 300mm of rain is expected to fall in the northern part of Gyeonggi and the northern part of Yeongseo, where there are Bukhan River water dams that send water to Paldang Dam by tomorrow.

If the amount of discharge at Paldang Dam increases, the water level in the Han River will inevitably rise.

Reporter Kim, it's Monday morning, how is the control of major arterial roads in Seoul?

<Reporter>

As the water level of the Han River and Jungnangcheon fell, traffic controls on some sections of Gangbyeonbuk-ro, Dongbu Arterial Road, Inner Ring Road, and Olympic Expressway were lifted last night.

Even if the situation is better than last Thursday, when the traffic disruption on the way to work occurred, the entire section of Nodeul-gil, including Jamsu Bridge, and the Yeouisang and downstream exits of Olympic Highway, and Gaehwayuk Lock Gate at the southern end of Banghwa Bridge are under full control.

Control sections can be added at any time according to changes in the water level of the Han River, so it is better to leave the house early after reviewing the traffic control information in Seoul.

Also, it is better to use public transportation as much as possible, as Seoul has decided to intensively dispatch subways and buses during the rush hour and delay the last bus by 30 minutes until the heavy rain warning is canceled.
