According to the city road maintenance office, workers were carrying out maintenance in the fast lane along the highway’s 1312K section, close to the Songpu No. 2 Bridge. Warning signs and road barriers were in place.

A south-bound truck ran into the construction area just before 2:50pm, crashing into the work vehicle.
