00:00Because of the strong force of the Marikina River, a barge that sank before it was seen by a boat in Pasig was removed from the anchorage.
00:10That is what the DPWH is investigating.
00:13If the boat will be saved, we will know in the following of Marizo Mali.
00:18How did these barges sank?
00:22In F. Manalo Bridge, because of the strong rain this Wednesday, it was made clear in the ongoing investigation by the DPWH in the incident.
00:31In the location map shown in GMA Integrated News, you can see the original location of the barges.
00:39But around 3.30 p.m. this Wednesday, when the water level in Marikina River increased, the barge No. 20 was removed from the anchorage, while the barge No. 18 sank.
00:51There was a kind of bowling type or chain reaction. One of the barges sank and then they moved.
00:57At that time, there were still people in the barge, but there was nothing to be done because of the fast and strong flow of water in Marikina River.
01:06No matter what we do, because it's just a barge, it doesn't have an engine to move by itself, so it was just brought.
01:18It's a good thing that all the barges were saved.
01:21But unfortunately, only a large piece was pushed into F. Manalo Bridge, which aside from being low, is also old.
01:28At present, the barge No. 20 is still anchored under the Circulo Verde Bridge, while some tugboats were already sunk.
01:35A salvage team was hired by the contractor of DPWH to pull the still anchored barges and remove the debris as soon as possible.
01:46Because this is a very dangerous situation, especially when it rains again and the flow of water increases.
01:54The barges are totally damaged.
01:56Secondly, when they move, they will hit the barges that are already sunk.
02:07They are racing against time.
02:09Based on the investigation of DPWH, it is possible for the F. Manalo Bridge to be salvaged so that motorists can cross it again.
02:16It needs to be passable as soon as possible.
02:19The approach is critical and we need to secure it.
02:23For GMA Integrated News, Maryse Umali, KTOTALK, 24 Hours.
