AMMAN — Parts of a street on the road leading to Kufur Jayez town, north of Irbid, some 80km north of Amman, collapsed on Friday. 

Irbid municipality's engineering and works department is studying the causes of the collapse, which damaged an area of 25 square metres on the street, the Jordan News Agency, Petra, reported. 

Irbid Mayor Hussein Bani Hani issued directives to prepare a detailed report on the causes of the collapse, which did not lead to injuries, and to begin rehabilitating the road. 

He also called for examining the entire area to avoid similar incidents in the future.
