A giant sinkhole which swallowed a chunk of road the length of a city block in the southwestern Japanese city of Fukuoka has been filled mere days after it appeared, a testament to Japanese engineering and efficiency. 
 
位于日本西南的福冈市街头出现一处巨型地陷,大面积道路被吞噬。地陷发生短短几天后便被填补,彰显了日本的工程实力和效率。
 
 
After the sinkhole appeared on November 8, subcontractors worked around the clock to fill in the 30 meter wide, 15 meter deep hole by the 12th with a mixture of sand and cement. 
 
The job was complicated by the water which had seeped in from sewage pipes destroyed by collapsing sections of road. 
 
After that it only took another 48 hours to reinstall all utilities -- electricity, water, sewage, gas and telecommunication lines -- and to resurface the road. There were no reports of injuries.
 
Motohisa Oda, a crisis management officer from the city of Fukuoka, told CNN that the underground construction work may have triggered the collapse
 
The gaping hole - which started off as two smaller ones before merging into the larger cavity - appeared 300 meters from the JR Hakata station, one of the city's main transport hubs. 
 
The mayor of Fukuoka, Soichiro Takashima, said the affected ground had been strengthened by a factor of 30 because of the sand and cement refill. 
 
Previously comprised largely of sand, the soil's composition was suspected to be a part of the cause for the huge hole, according to local civil engineering experts.
