13-Meter Pipe Emerges from Ground at Osaka Construction Site
A large underground steel pipe (27 meters long, 3.5 meters in diameter) rose about 13 meters from the ground at a construction site near Hankyu’s Osaka-Umeda Station in Osaka, likely part of connecting a sewer to a water storage pipe for rainwater overflow; no injuries were reported and traffic was briefly halted as investigators determine the cause.
