AMBON - Access to the main road to Ambon City was cut off due to a landslide in Wakasihu Country, West Leihitu District (Ambon Island), Central Maluku Regency.
"This natural disaster occurred at around 11:30 WIT so that motorized vehicles were temporarily unable to pass, and there were no casualties or material losses in this disaster," said Head of Public Relations of the Ambon Island Police and PP Lease, Ipda Moyo Utomo in Ambon, as reported by ANTARA, Wednesday, August 24.
As a result of the rain that has continued to lash Ambon Island with moderate to heavy intensity since two days ago, the sloping ground conditions and trees at the incident site collapsed covering the main road section.
This disaster also caused the power grid to be cut off and the power pole toppled to block the road.
According to him, the West Leihitu Police Chief along with members who went to the scene of the incident immediately coordinated with the Highways of the Maluku PUPR Service to carry out emergency handling.
"From the results of the coordination, Bina Marga asked for time to contact contractors who have heavy equipment such as excavators to clean up materials and carry out stockpiling," explained Moyo Utomo.
Meanwhile, the Head of the Highways Section, Amy Pellu, explained that the landslide material was so large that heavy equipment assistance was needed for cleaning so that road access could be reopened.
