The bridge which facilitates safe crossing on the Kaneshie highway is now spotting deadly wide cracks putting the lives of hundreds of people who use it daily in danger. Traders who hawk their wares right on the shaky and risky bridge say the problem was aggravated about a month ago when an overloaded tipper truck hit it. Aside the visible cracks, the nuts screwed to the bridge are all rusty leaving the bridge in a very dilapidated state. According hawkers on the bridge who spoke to Xfm 95.1, some city authorities are aware of the situation but nothing is being done to save the collapsing bridge. One hawker on the bridge lamented, “the bridge is shaking and causing fear in commuters since they are afraid the bridge would fall off one day. They complain a lot to us traders as if we caused the damage. We wish the bridge would be fixed as soon as possible. Even though we are afraid of selling on the bridge, we also don’t have any place to sell our wares”. “I don’t think the authorities would come early enough to fix the bridge since they’ve come several times to check it, even Vandapuije came here to confirm the damage. They even took pictures of the bridge and assured us that they would come to fix it for us”, another said. The bad nature of the bridge has put intense pressure on the other bridge close to the damaged one on the same highway since most commuters will rather use that which is relatively safer. Until the problem with the first bridge is checked; it is only a matter of time that the second bridge will follow in the same manner.
