Five hours later some bureaucrat makes the decision to close the bridge, the handrails have been cut off and yet the water level needs another metre to reach the roadway.



Radio and TV announce that the bridge is closed so everyone gathers expecting to see water flowing over the bridge. People are stranded on both sides, but no water.

We are now told that the river may go over the bridge sometime within the next 48 hours!! In the meantime Saturday has been disrupted for many people by some little man in power a long way away from the scene. I'm not happy!!!!
