the rainy season front, which was briefly pushed toward North Korea in a typhoon, comes down again, a lot of rain is falling in the central region. First, let's connect a reporter who is out at Jamsu Bridge in Seoul.

Reporter Kang Min-woo, is there any change in the water level of Jamsu Bridge?

<Reporter> The

water level of Jamsu Bridge keeps rising little by little.

There has been a lot of rain here from the night of the 10th, but it has almost stopped, but the Jamsu Bridge and Hangang Park, which can be seen behind me, are still submerged in water like this.

It is already the 10th day today that the Jamsu Bridge was controlled due to the rise of the Han River.

The water level, which had risen more than 9m yesterday, dropped to the 6m range as the rains subsided a little yesterday.

However, as rain continued last night in Seoul and northern Gyeonggi Province, the water level continued to rise, reaching 8 meters a little before 10:30.

The amount of discharge from Paldang Dam that directly affects the water level of the Han River is the situation that the discharge amount has been increased to more than 10,000 tons per second from 10 am, so the water level is expected to continue to rise for the time being.

The city of Seoul called for citizens' attention, saying that access control to rivers and Hangang Park is still continuing.

How is the control of major arterial roads in downtown Seoul?

<Reporter>

Yes, several roads such as Dongbu Arterial Road were controlled earlier in the morning, but as they were lifted again, the control section is now reduced.

Currently, the upper and lower Yeoui interchanges are under control of Jamsu Bridge and Olympic Highway.

There aren't many control sections right now, but as rain of 30 to 80 mm is expected in Seoul, northern Gyeonggi and northern Gangwon today, the control section can be increased again at any time.

When leaving with a car, the city of Seoul advised to check the road conditions in advance on the traffic information site.
