The ice picks hanging upside down on the elevated everywhere are obvious (**Photo by Xinwang reporter Li Ruyi).Xinwang reported on February 21(Reporter Li Ruyi) The successive heavy snowfall has made the island city "change its clothes in a second", and various departments and units in Qingdao are also stepping up snow removal and de-icing after the snow. Xinwang (**0532-80889431) noticed that the current de-icing results of urban roads are more obvious, but some citizens have found that pointed upside-down ice picks have been formed under many elevated roads, and there is a risk of falling and injuring cars and people as the snow melts.
Under the Hang'an Elevated Expressway, Jiaoning Elevated Road, and Chongqing Road Elevated Road, there are strings of ice picks hanging upside down along the bridge deck, some are long and some are short and have different shapes, and some large ice picks can be tens of centimeters long. In snowy weather, the road is slippery, and passing vehicles and pedestrians pay more attention to their feet, but ignore the hidden dangers overhead. "It's amazing that this big ice skate has fallen. "On the side of the Chongqing Road Elevated Road, a passing citizen said that he lives near the elevated road, although in recent years there is rarely such heavy snow, the snow clearing work on the road is also very fast, but there are still many aspects that everyone has not paid attention to," I also hang an ice skate at the door of the building, and there is a danger of hurting people if I am not careful. ”
Unlike ground snow removal and de-icing, which can be done quickly by snow plows, snow melting agents, etc., this upside-down ice pick is almost entirely manual to handle. Responsible for the maintenance of Chongqing Road viaduct Qingdao City Development Group project leader Sui Manager introduced, the current bridge deck snow melting and de-icing work is being intensified, the bridge will have a small amount of water seeping into the road surface after the snow melting, so as to leak into ice picks, this kind of ice picks can only be used to send workers up to manually de-ice, "Chongqing Road viaduct is divided into 18 sections, and the subcontracting companies in different sections carry out de-icing work at the same time to ensure the safety of citizens." ”
It is reported that on the morning of the 21st, the orange and yellow warning signals for blizzard were lifted in various districts and cities in Qingdao, and it is expected that this round of snowfall will gradually end in the early morning of the 22nd. As the weather changes, the upside-down ice picks will gradually melt and may fall at any time, so vehicles and citizens should not only pay attention to the safety of their feet, but also be vigilant against "overhead assassins", and avoid places where ice picks may form under bridges and eaves as much as possible.
