Heavy rain washes away bridge in Lae

Heavy rain last night in Lae had washed away the culvert drain and ripped away the sealed road at 11-Mile outside of Lae city.

The Port Moresby Chamber of Commerce and Industry Secretariat in an email to its members advised them to take precaution if travelling to Lae.   

“For anyone planning to travel to or from Lae today please note the road has washed out at 11 Mile and access to and from Nadzab (Airport) is cut off.”

The road also links the Highlands Highway to Lae city.
