Residents of Mocha Arcadia are pleading with the relevant authorities to have the main access bridge to their village repaired urgently.
The bridge, which is currently closed to vehicular traffic, is still being traversed by pedestrians, cyclists and motorcyclists. When Stabroek News visited yesterday, several of the decking planks of the bridge were either broken or out of place. It was observed that whenever a cyclist or motorcyclist rode across the bridge, it would rattle and tremble, as if the structure was about to collapse.
However, Chairman of the Neighbourhood Democratic Council (NDC) Rudolph Adams yesterday told this newspaper that rehabilitation works to repair the bridge will be undertaken by the Ministry of Public Infrastructure and are expected to begin by mid-October.
