Time-lapse video of huge sinkhole in Japan getting fixed

Thursday, November 17, 2016

Hakata,JAPAN LOVE has put together a time-lapse video that shows Japanese workers filling up and fixing the massive sinkhole that appeared on a busy street in the business district of Fukuoka, in just a few days.


From CNN:
After the sinkhole appeared on November 8, subcontractors worked around the clock to fill in the 30 meter (98 ft) wide, 15 meter (50 ft) deep hole by the 12th with a mixture of sand and cement. The job was complicated by the water which had seeped in from sewage pipes destroyed by collapsing sections of road.

After that it only took another 48 hours to reinstall all utilities -- electricity, water, sewage, gas and telecommunication lines -- and to resurface the road. There were no reports of injuries.
