Emergency services are currently at the scene of a bridge collapse in Primorye, Russia.

The incident occurred on a section of the highway near the village of Chernigovka. According to preliminary information, the collapse was caused by heavy rainfall and flooding in the area. The bridge has been completely destroyed, and traffic in both directions has been closed.

Emergency services are currently working to clear the debris and repair the bridge. However, it is not yet known when the road will be reopened. Drivers are advised to use alternative routes.

The bridge collapse has caused significant disruption to traffic in the area.

The highway is a major route connecting Vladivostok to other parts of Primorye. The closure of the bridge is likely to cause delays and congestion on other roads in the region.
