00:00 A part of the Salas Road is still closed in Pasay City.
00:04 It is also next to the open road that was once a heavy traffic.
00:09 Let's find out the update on this news from Bernard Ferrell.
00:13 Bernard?
00:14 The water in the sinkhole that is being discovered here in Salas Road
00:24 is just near the Villamor Air Base in Pasay City.
00:29 The sinkhole is 2 by 3 meters long, 8 to 10 feet deep.
00:37 It is already buried deep.
00:39 In a statement by Senator Ramon Bong Revilla Jr.,
00:42 the chairman of the Senate Committee on Public Works,
00:45 there is a threat to motorists and residential property
00:51 and the foundation of Ninoy Aquino International Airport Expressway.
00:59 Revilla believes that service providers should have accountability and proactive measures
01:06 so that the same incident will not happen again.
01:10 He also calls for service providers to have regular inspection and maintenance of their projects.
01:19 In a statement by Manila Water Services Inc.,
01:23 the sinkhole is likely to have happened because the ground was wet from the water that leaked into their pipeline.
01:31 Manila is now investigating the leak in their pipeline.
01:37 The part of the East Bauna side of Salas Road in Pasay City is still closed.
01:46 While I am just waiting for the work of DPWH to start.
01:55 And for now, the traffic is not a problem here in the other side of Salas Road.
02:04 But every rush hour, this part of Salas Road is really flooded by motorists.
02:13 So because there is only one lane here on the East Bauna side,
02:18 this will be a problem for motorists, especially those who are going to Bonivacio Global City in Taguig and Paranaque.
02:26 Back to you.
02:27 Thank you very much Bernard Ferrer.
