The Chinese mainland has announced an additional allocation of 45 million yuan (approximately $6.2 million) to urgently restore roads damaged by recent floods. 💰🚗
The funds, provided by the Ministry of Finance (MOF) and the Ministry of Transport, will be swiftly deployed to repair roads in Anhui, Hubei, Heilongjiang provinces, and Chongqing Municipality. 🛣️✨
Previously, these ministries allocated 105 million yuan to support road restoration in Guangdong, Guangxi, Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, Hunan, and Guizhou. 🏗️🔧
These financial boosts aim to help local authorities maintain safe traffic flow during the ongoing flood season. Persistent heavy rains have wreaked havoc across China's southern regions this summer, damaging infrastructure and causing casualties. 🌧️😔
In response to the continuing downpours, China's meteorological and water resources authorities have renewed a red alert, the highest-level warning, for mountain torrents. Stay safe and stay informed! 🌊⚠️
