It became known about the death of the second worker after the collapse of the trench

The second road worker, who was hospitalized after the collapse of sand in a trench on the 31st kilometer of the ring road in the Leningrad region, died in a medical facility. His sister reported it. Thus, the number of victims of the tragedy increased to two people.

Editorial 78.ru contacted a colleague of the victims, Konstantin, who spoke about the possible causes of the tragedy. According to him, on the site was previously recorded the erosion of the road.

Workers dug a hole 3-4 meters deep in search of cable and found a void under the concrete, formed due to the blurred sand. The hole began to close and close with concrete. Constantine called a certain Alexander, assuring him that the work was completed and everything was in order.

Konstantin, who worked at the site on Thursday and Friday, noted that they worked in downpours and were replaced by night crews.

The man suggested that the tragedy could lead to the negligence of the masters who did not monitor the condition of the soil, despite the presence on the site of heavy equipment, including an excavator.

About the dead colleagues, the man speaks warmly.

One of the dead men has a wife and four minor children who live in Uzbekistan.
