Yesterday and today have been chaotic for commuters traveling on the road that links the Highlands Highway into Lae.
And with the Morobe show in Lae this weekend (Oct 15-16), many travelling into the city with goods to sell at the show are hoping to make it in time.
Over 20000 commuters have been at the washed away two-lane bridge since early yesterday morning.
Leo Wafiwa, a former lecturer and strand leader of the UPNG journalism strand, was one of those who spent the night on the Highlands Highway side of the road.
