The landslide also led to the collapse of the Bailey Bridge at the location, causing it to fall into the Aoyoung River and cutting off road connectivity.

Responding swiftly to the crisis, the 100 Road Construction Company of the 15 Border Roads Task Force (BRTF) under Project Sewak swung into action. On July 18, a temporary bamboo bridge was constructed to facilitate pedestrian traffic through the area.
