Afraid that citizens will listen to music festivals for free without buying tickets, seal bridges with iron sheets, and occupy blind roads? Local response

Recently, due to the music festival held in Bengbu City, Anhui Province, the matter of closing the bridge with a fence attracted network attention. The fence not only invaded the blind road and damaged the bridge deck, but also raised the question of "fearing that citizens would listen to music for free without buying tickets". After what happened, the reporter of the General Station in Anhui rushed to Bengbu for a field interview.

Sudden enclosure of highway bridge

Longhu Bridge in Bengbu is a highway bridge across Longzi Lake in Bengbu City, Anhui Province. The main span of the bridge is about 800 meters long and 36 meters wide. It is not only the main road of east-west traffic in Bengbu City, but also an excellent scenic spot overlooking Longzi Lake.

On June 23 this year, a totally enclosed iron fence was suddenly built on the sidewalk on the south side of Longhu Bridge, and the blind road was also enclosed in the fence, which caused dissatisfaction among netizens on the Internet.

A netizen named "Life Research Institute" took the lead in releasing a video and broke the news about the enclosure construction site of Longhu Bridge.

Many netizens commented below the video that this is the organizer’s move to prevent the audience who have not purchased tickets from performing at the music festival on the bridge, but who will be responsible for destroying the ground and occupying the blind road?

For this kind of behavior, many citizens also put forward their own views.

From June 30th to July 2nd this year, Bengbu will hold a three-day Longhu Music Festival. The venue is located on the lawn on the east bank of Longzi Lake. The reporter stood on the bridge and visually observed that the nearest place is about 400 meters away from the concert venue. Although there is a certain distance, due to the high terrain and wide vision, it is indeed possible to see the main stage completely.

The reporter inquired about the ticket information and learned that the music festival lasted for three days, and the ticket price ranged from 99 yuan to 369 yuan. Is the enclosure installed to prevent people from rubbing tickets? The organizer denied this.

Organizer: enclosure is not forbidden, it is considered safe.

The organizer said that the enclosure was installed for safety, and the netizen "Life Research Institute", who first released the video, quickly released a short video saying that the organizer of the music festival contacted her and installed the enclosure for everyone’s safety.

Why is the "safe" enclosure quickly dismantled?

On June 26th, the day this video was released, the enclosure installed on the bridge suddenly began to be dismantled. Since it was built for safety, why should it be demolished in a few days?
