CHENGDU -- No casualties have been reported after a road section at a subway construction site collapsed early Friday in Chengdu, capital city of Southwest China's Sichuan province, according to local authorities.
The road subsidence happened at 3:50 am at a section of the No 13 Line under construction by the China Railway No 2 Group Co Ltd, after two water pipes buried underground burst, causing a 12-meter-long road collapse, according to the city's subway authority.
Water supply to the pipelines was cut following the road collapse, while affected roads have been closed.
