Thua Thien – HueA 20m long bamboo bridge across the Bo River serves the trips of the locals and helps to combat the sand barge.
In the past three days, 20 people from Thanh Luong 2 Street, Huong Xuan District (Huong Tra City) cut bamboo together and built a bridge across the Bo River. More than a hundred bamboo trees are made up to 1.2m wide, the bridge is one meter from the Bo river water, just enough small boats to fish from one side to the other.
According to Nguyen Dinh (56, Thanh Luong 2), the bridge is only made of bamboo, but it is strong enough to get through the rainy season and prevent barges from illegally exploiting the sand on the floating dunes.

With Floating you are in the middle of the Bo River, which was almost 10 hectares wide, where the people of Thanh Luong 2 planted yucca and peanuts. A year ago, many barges and boats came to this area to steal sand at night, causing strong erosion of the floating alcohol, now the area is just over 2 hectares.

To build a bridge, many people in Thanh Luong 2 suburb voluntarily contribute bamboo and contribute. “The bandits of sand make our farmland sink into the river, so the villagers don’t do much, they take advantage of the holidays to build this bridge,” Dinh shared.
Standing on the bridge, Mr. Nguyen Tam (64 years old) pointed to the floating dunes and groundnut near the river’s edge, where people drop piles of bamboo to reinforce, but it is still full of “frog jaws “due to landslides.

“We established an autonomous organization, but we were unable to stop the sand bandits operating at night, with the momentum of sand suctioning going on for as long as now, just shortly before the Float disappears,” Tam said.
Earlier, on the morning of April 9, the people of Thanh Luong 2 discovered 3 boats and a barge sucking sand in the floating dune area. They walked away and during the fight they submerged the barge. More than 10 days later, the boat was rescued to investigate.
Mr. Ngo Quang Thao, President of Huong Xuan Ward, said that the bamboo bridge only crosses the Bo river branch, not the main stream, so it does not affect the local waterway.
“The bridge helps people travel and cultivate on the floating dunes easily, and prevents large ships and barges from exploiting illegal sand. The local government supports this,” Thao said.
