On April 16, a netizen in Fuzhou, Jiangxi Province posted a video saying that a large section of the fence on the Caizi Bridge in the Yihuang River Section of Xiahuang New Village, Shangdundu Town, Linchuan District, Fuzhou Province collapsed.
According to the video, the guardrail on one side of the white bridge guardrail basically fell down, neatly falling to the inside of the bridge, and some gravel and stone were scattered on the ground, which looked very messy and unsafe.
Shattered to the ground
On April 17, a staff member of the local Linchuan District Transportation Bureau responded: "The reason is that the wind is too strong and blows down the guardrail of the bridge." And said in a firm tone: It is definitely not a quality problem, and the steel pipe is currently being added to increase protection.
The staff said it was too windy
You must know that this "Caizi Bridge" is a "landmark building" built with a local investment of nearly 200 million yuan, and it is also a provincial key project
Local reports
According to a tweet posted by the local propaganda department's official WeChat public account in February 2021 that "Linchuan Caizi Bridge has been completed and opened to traffic", the bridge has a total investment of 195 million yuan, a length of 540 meters, a net width of 28 meters, and a two-way six-lane bridge. The completion of the bridge has alleviated the traffic pressure in the urban area of Shangdundu Town, strengthened the traffic connection between the west and east banks of Shangdundu Town, and made the road network in Linchuan District more perfect, and the traffic of nearby vehicles and personnel is more convenient.
Recently, Jiangxi did blow a lot of wind, according to the Jiangxi Meteorological Bureau released the news, on April 16 Fuzhou appeared short-term heavy rainfall, thunderstorms and winds and other weather, according to the monitoring instantaneous maximum wind speed of 12 thunderstorms and gales of 35.9 m/s, breaking the local maximum gust record of 30 m/s.
Gale records
However, there are indeed objective factors of strong winds, but why haven't other bridges collapsed?
Some netizens said: Lugou Bridge has been fine for hundreds of years, and the construction technology is not as good as in ancient times, which is too ironic....

Some netizens think: It is indeed the wind blowing, an unhealthy wind.
At present, Jiangxi is vigorously carrying out the rectification of unhealthy tendencies, and hopes to achieve good results!
In this regard, ladies and gentlemen, do you think it is because the wind blows? Is there really a really strong wind?
