In the morning of June 19, 2011, China’s Zhejiang Province, there’s a shocking big hole in the road, which is about 30 meters in depth, 20 meters in length and 15 meters in width. Due to recently heavy rains, subgrade is loose and drains are damaged, so the roadbed is seriously undermined by the water. From early morning the road has begun to collapse, while still shows a trend of further expansion. Given such a situation, the local highway authorities immediately put security warning signs there to alert passing vehicles and pedestrians, and call the maintaining excavators to prevent the undermining again. Currently, the right side of the road is closed, only the left for pass.
