Wasigo bridge

Materials for bridge construction stranded

The materials are now stranded and placed at the side of the road at Tapopo, some thirty kilometres away.

The Wasigo bridge was damaged towards the end of last year after a container truckĀ  transporting tinned fish accidentally crashed onto the side of the bridge and dragged it along, causing it to fall into the river and destroying the entire barley bridge.

Vehicles and the traveling public who depend on this vital road link were stranded for a couple of days before a river crossing was built to allow bigger and four-wheel vehicles cross.
