Regarding the incident of tunneling additives on the No. 3 urban railway line, Nhon - Hanoi station section, erupting onto the ground, on February 28, households living in lane 7, Giang Van Minh street (Kim Ma ward, Ba Dinh district, Hanoi) continued to be evacuated. Previously, 8 households had to be urgently evacuated on the evening of February 27.

On February 27, data showed that some points had subsidence exceeding the warning threshold, according to the principle of the highest safety, the relevant units decided to relocate 11 additional houses (including 17 families) in lane 7, Giang Van Minh street. Previously, 4 houses (including 7 families) had been temporarily relocated according to the project's initial plan.

After the mud and additive eruption on the afternoon of February 20, many houses had a series of cracks, some of which extended from the 1st to the 4th floor, creating large gaps connecting to the house foundation.

According to local residents, at first the cracks were very small and difficult to see, but after only 1-2 days the cracks widened and could be seen clearly with the naked eye.

Cracks run along the wall at house number 24 Giang Van Minh alley.

Some households that were previously relocated had their doors sealed by the Hanoi Urban Railway Management Board.

Households prepare their belongings to move to a safe place on the afternoon of February 28.

Ms. Khanh Vy (lane 7 Giang Van Minh) said: "My family has not found a house for the whole family to move to because the relocation announcement is too urgent. The family wants to rent near the old house to conveniently monitor the house, but it is very difficult to find a house to rent for about 3-4 months. There is a baby in the house, so the whole family's life is disrupted and difficult."

As a family of four generations living with the elderly and young children, Ms. Pham Thi Xuyen (lane 7 Giang Van Minh) is very worried about her family's accommodation. "My family was affected on February 18 and has been moving since then. The local government and the contractor have provided support for the people. We have just received a subsidy to buy food and drinks. We just hope that the parties will fix the problem and return the house to its original state so that we can live in peace," Ms. Xuyen confided.

The technical team inspected the structure of the house and recorded the incident of subsidence and cracks in the house due to the construction of the underground line of the Nhon - Hanoi Railway Station Metro project, on the afternoon of February 28.

The investor will support each household with 16 million VND/month to rent a house. It is expected that the recovery time will be about 1 month.

According to the Hanoi Urban Railway Management Board (MRB - the investor), before starting construction, the investor requested the contractor to purchase third-party liability insurance. As soon as signs of impact were detected, the insurance company conducted a survey, assessment and statistics to compensate for damaged houses, if any. "The project is committed to continuing to closely monitor the situation, listen to people's opinions and coordinate with relevant parties to ensure safety and transparency in the incident handling process" - MRB representative affirmed.

During the time the households are temporarily housed, MRB will continue to conduct inspections, assessments and find solutions to reinforce the ground to ensure the safety of related structures. This process is expected to last about 1 month.
