In addition, the concrete tie rod system on the surface and bottom of the embankment was also displaced, pulled down into the canal, in some places the landslide was 0.5 - 1 m from the road surface. The concrete sewer system, which was designed to withstand water pressure at the foot of the embankment, was also damaged, many concrete pipes were detached, lying haphazardly in the middle of the canal. The severe landslide situation of the project has directly threatened the safety of some houses and dozens of aquaculture ponds in the area.
