The National Bureau of Statistics divides loss indicators into three categories.

Among the property losses, the loss of houses was very large, and the losses of private houses and urban residents' houses accounted for 27.4% of the total losses.

Provincial Highway 105 from Mianzhu to Beichuan was opened at 18:00 on May 15, 2008. The number of disaster relief material routes leading to Beichuan increased to two. The transportation pressure on the county road originally from Mianyang City to Beichuan via An County has been relieved.

The northern highway has also made progress. The 302 Provincial Highway from Heishui to Maoxian is progressing smoothly. It is still 6 kilometers away from Maoxian County. The 213 National Highway from Songpan to Maoxian has also been completed. It leads to 6 kilometers away from Maoxian County.

There is still a 29-kilometer road section between Wenchuan and Maoxian that has not been cleared. According to remote sensing monitoring, about 14 road sections were submerged or collapsed due to landslides. On the western route, in addition to the above-mentioned National Highway 317 from Malkang County to Wenchuan, Provincial Highway 303 from Danba to Yingxiu via Xiaojin has been opened to Wolong, which is still 40 kilometers away from Yingxiu. According to Xian Xiong, deputy director of the Sichuan Provincial Department of Transportation, the most difficult task of rushing to open roads is the east-line highway.

When Provincial Highway 302 from Beichuan to Maoxian County reached 28 kilometers away from Maoxian County, a mountain collapse occurred again in the road section, and the 16 kilometers from Beichuan County to Xuanping was flooded, making it difficult to advance the work. ***10 counties (cities), namely:
