Community member Lindiwe Mhlongo, who helped build the temporary bridge says it is useful. but unsafe. “We are forced to wake up early in the morning because this is our only connecting path to our workplaces and hospital. it is also used by learners from two primary schools. As parents, we were forced to wake up early in the morning and come to this river to carry the kids across the river. We did the same thing in the afternoon when kids were coming back from school. That is how an idea of a temporary bridge structure came about,” says Mhlongo.
