Children from the community of Adams Creek and surrounding areas in the Upper Pomeroon River have to cross a dilapidated bridge to get to the Dredge Creek Primary and Nursery schools and concerned parents are pleading with the relevant authorities to have it repaired urgently.
The primary school caters for the educational needs of 69 students while the nursery school has 20 pupils.
Stabroek News visited the area on Wednesday last at the request of several concerned parents and observed children carefully navigating around large holes in the bridge where wood planks were supposed to be.
