GUA MUSANG: A temporary bridge connecting Jalan Gua Musang-Jeli to Kampung Pulau Setelu here was flooded by the high waters of Sungai Nenggiri yesterday. The bridge, which was flooded for the 23rd time since its construction, was closed to all vehicles at 6.30pm due to strong river currents. Regular bridge user Sulaiman Ahmad, 41, said the water rose very fast and began to flood the bridge at 5.40pm. He said by 6pm, only heavy vehicles were able to cross the bridge which was under 0.2 metres of water. "We will clear the bridge of any wood residue to ensure that it is safe for road users," he said.
