Baku Center Flooded
Baku / 23.09.18 / Turan: The heavy rain promised on Sunday exceeded all expectations. The residents of Baku, who were unlucky to go to the city center in the morning, could be convinced of this.
The most dramatic situation developed on the Neftchilar Avenue and on the Khagani and Hajibeyov streets. Here the water level was about one meter and the cars were almost floating along the streets.
The downpour flooded many basements, tunnels and underground passages.
The authorities of the capital have not found a solution to this problem, which collapses the capital once a year or two. -0-
