<Anchor> The

rainy season is the 50th day today (12th). The rain showed a lull during the night, but as you may have heard, there are showers today and tomorrow in the central region, and rainy season is expected again from the day after tomorrow. In the longest rainy season, Jamsu Bridge in Seoul has already been locked for 11 days. Let’s connect on-site reporters.

Reporter Yoo Su-hwan, what is the current level of Jamsu Bridge?

<Reporter>

Yes, it did not rain over the Jamsu Bridge area overnight.

But as you can see, the water level is still very high.

Even if it is only 6.5m high, the submersible bridge is submerged and invisible, but now it maintains a water level of 8m, which is much higher than that.

During this rainy season, the water level of the Jamsu Bridge once exceeded 9m.

As the rain subsided, it fell to the 6m range yesterday, but yesterday morning the water level rose again due to heavy rain in Seoul and northern Gyeonggi Province.

It is the 11th day since Jamsu Bridge was controlled today, and it is the longest locked state since its opening in 1976.

The amount of discharge from the Paldang Dam that affects the water level of the Han River is still flowing down 9,000 tons of water per second, so it will take more time to see the submersible bridge again.

Reporter Yoo, after a while, your way to work will begin.

<Reporter>

Yes, the roads in downtown Seoul are still partially controlled.

The upper and lower Yeoui crossings that connect to Jamsu Bridge and Olympic Highway, where I am, are completely under control.

In addition, both directions of Gaehwa Yukgapmun, Yangpyeong Interchange, and Dangsan Underground Road are still restricted.

Control of all sections of the Dongbu Arterial Road and the lower section of Dongjak Bridge at Yeomchang Intersection of Olympic Expressway has been released.

However, as the control section can be expanded at any time depending on the level of the Han River, it is necessary to check the road conditions in advance on the traffic information site before going to work.
