[edit]DescriptionThe big hole in Ubud's Main Street.jpg |
English: Jack Marridew's very informative text:
Jalan Raya (main road) of Ubud, Bali, Indonesia. In early July, 2009, a pothole appeared in front of the market (pasar). Then the road began to subside and some barriers went up. The sound of running water was heard from rather far below the hole. The market is (was) often visited by large Mercedes Benz buses bringing mostly Taiwanese tourists on day-trips to Ubud. They're *heavy* and often "break roads". Some time ago (40+ years), there was a bridge here over a river and a culvert was constructed out of stone and mortar and a lot of dirt thrown on top. This was decades before electricity or pavement made it to town. The culvert has disintegrated and the river has eroded away everything under the road. After a few days of watching the hole expand and scrambling to rearrange the directionality of streets, an excavator was brought in to see what's down there; down about 10 metres. The river, and some stones. No one knows what's going to happen. Some senior people from the provincial government came for a look-see a week later. The culvert is hundreds of metres long and runs under the main parking lot of the market and a number of large buildings (all owned by the palace;). My guess is at least a year to sort the mess with the buildings coming down and the market relocated out of town. HannoSEA: that did not happen, but they built a new market in 2022-23Deutsch: Jack Marridew's sehr informativer Text:
Jalan Raya (Hauptstraße) in Ubud, Bali, Indonesien. Anfang Juli 2009 entstand vor dem Markt (pasar) ein Schlagloch. Dann begann sich die Straße abzusenken und es wurden einige Barrieren errichtet. Das Geräusch von fließendem Wasser war von ziemlich weit unterhalb des Lochs zu hören. Der Markt wird (wurde) oft von großen Mercedes Benz-Bussen angefahren, die hauptsächlich taiwanesische Touristen auf Tagesausflügen nach Ubud bringen. Sie sind *schwer* und machen oft "Straßen kaputt". Vor einiger Zeit (vor mehr als 40 Jahren) gab es hier eine Brücke über einen Fluss, und es wurde ein Durchlass aus Steinen und Mörtel gebaut, auf den eine Menge Erde geworfen wurde. Das war Jahrzehnte bevor es in der Stadt Elektrizität oder Bürgersteige gab. Der Durchlass hat sich aufgelöst und der Fluss hat alles unter der Straße weggespült. Nachdem wir ein paar Tage lang beobachtet hatten, wie sich das Loch ausdehnte und die Straßen neu ausgerichtet werden mussten, wurde ein Bagger angefordert, um zu sehen, was sich dort unten befand - etwa 10 Meter tiefer. Der Fluss und einige Steine. Keiner weiß, was passieren wird. Eine Woche später kamen einige hochrangige Leute von der Provinzregierung, um sich das Ganze anzusehen. Der Kanal ist Hunderte von Metern lang und verläuft unter dem Hauptparkplatz des Marktes und einer Reihe von großen Gebäuden (die alle dem Palast gehören). Ich schätze, dass es mindestens ein Jahr dauern wird, um das Chaos zu beseitigen, da die Gebäude abgerissen werden und der Markt aus der Stadt verlegt wird. HannoSEA: Das Loch wurde gefüllt und 2022-23 wurde der alte Markt durch einen neuen ersetzt. |
