[周刊王CTWANT] The strong earthquake hit the Huadong Railway and the traffic in Huadong entered a dark period. Affected by successive strong earthquakes in Hualien and Taitung, the new Guluanxi Bridge between Yuli and Dongli in the Taiwan Railway was severely damaged and the bridge was moved 20 to 100cm Although Communications Minister Wang Guocai recently commissioned, it is hoped that Huadong Railway will be repaired within a month., reopened to traffic, but due to severe damage to the bridge, Wang Guocai confirmed in the evening that the repair could take 6 months, which will not only affect National Day holiday transportation. , but also the return to the hometown during the Lunar New Year next year.
The 918 earthquake caused a lot of damage to the Taiwan Railway tracks.The latest Taiwan Railway report showed that about 40 fledgling Guluanxi bridge poles were broken and damaged, the front of the bridge was raised 50cm, the bridge the pillars were raised, the shoulder was tilted and the bridge was moved from 20 to 100 cm. The Taiwan Railway Administration Public Works Office conducted an on-site investigation on the 19th and 20th, ZTE Consulting Company conducted a visual investigation of the entire bridge components to confirm the degree of damage, and a report should be presented next week. The Taiwan Railway Administration stressed that when it is connected, it will await the release of the assessment report.
The Huadong Railway has been shut down, and Wang Guocai recently said it could take more than a month for traffic to resume. However, it is understood that in the past two days the technicians from Taiwan Railway and ZTE engineering consultants have been on site for an inspection and are not optimistic. From Hualien to Taitung Railway, 11 places along the line were affected by the earthquake, causing the rails to bend and warp, causing instability.Among them, the fledgling Guluanxi Bridge situation is the least optimistic and may take several months for repair.
Wang Zhaoxian, director of the Department of Public Works of the Taiwan Railway Administration, admitted that there will be two difficulties to open to traffic safely: the first is that the foundation of the power pole is attached to the bridge, but the earthquake has separated, and the foundations of energy must be rebuilt. , It needs to be redesigned and calculated. After all, without the foundations of the power poles, there will be no power poles or tram lines, and the trains will not be able to run.
Second, the fledgling Guluanxi Bridge structure was moved. With current engineering technology, it is not impossible to restore the displaced bridge. However, Taiwan Railway has to wait for the report next week to decide how to strengthen it. This will also affect the opening hours.
Huadong rail transport was severely hit by the strong earthquake. Although the Ministry of Communications has launched a “train-like” bus link, on average there is only one bus per hour. If the seats are full or lost, you will have to wait at least an hour. Holidays may take longer. During the dark period, people complained again and again.
