A team from the Hải Phòng Road Maintenance Company worked tirelessly to clear roads and debris, ensuring traffic safety amidst the severe weather conditions.

Nguyễn Văn Nam, an employee of the company, described the challenging and dangerous conditions they faced as they cleared debris from the roads. Despite the risks, Nam emphasised their commitment to maintaining road accessibility.

"Despite the dangers, we are dedicated to keeping the roads clear to prevent accidents," Nam said.

Emergency directives

On Saturday afternoon, the Ministry of Transport issued another emergency notice, calling on all agencies, departments, and provincial transport departments to focus on responding to storm No 3 and the subsequent heavy rain and flooding.

The ministry instructed these agencies and units to strictly adhere to the directives for storm preparedness previously issued. They are to prepare personnel, equipment, machinery, and materials for storm and flood responses, ensuring that the "four on-site" principle is followed. Special attention must be paid to the safety of people and equipment involved in storm and flood relief efforts.

According to the Vietnam Directorate for Roads, as of 11am on Saturday, the Road Management Unit 1 had closed Tân Vũ - Lạch Huyện Bridge to traffic, ensuring public safety ahead of the direct impact of typhoon Yagi on Hải Phòng.
