　　7月3日下午3时10分左右，澎湃新闻（www.thepaper.cn）从武汉市新洲区凤凰镇防汛指挥部获悉，长江首轮洪峰将于今晚到达新洲，目前指挥部正在安排举西沿堤周边村民转移。

　　郑园村的王新竹等多位村民对澎湃新闻表示，举河西堤已有20多年没有加固，1991年的时候曾经发生过翻沙管涌的险情。该村郭姓书记向澎湃新闻证实了该说法。凤凰镇党政办公室主任胡金元也坦言，西堤确实年久失修没有加固过。

　　另外，澎湃新闻发现，此前媒体报道过的位于举水河西堤北段70多米长的溃口并未被封堵。郑园村陶家湾处的村民对此表示不满，称“一旦有大洪水来，整个湾还会被淹”。凤凰镇党委副书记李金发表示，非常理解村民的心情。对于溃口处为何未封堵，他向澎湃新闻解释，昨天通往陶家湾的道路被洪水淹没，转载石料抢险车辆无法进入。而且，当时已得知，还会来洪峰，如果当时封堵，根本达不到效果，劳民伤财。

　　据长江日报报道，7月1日，湖北省举水流域受梅雨期第四轮强降雨袭击，突发特大洪水，当晚8时许，武汉市新洲区凤凰镇郑园村陶家河湾举水河西圩院发生溃口，口门70多米。
