Waiho Bridge Collapse

Waiho bridge collapses in the rain!!! !!!!??????

WALT: write a recount.

On the 26th of march 2019 at 5:30 p.m, at waiho river, the waiho bridge was cut in half collapsed in the rain. Torrents of rain have been bucketing down, and now there is nearly nothing left of the bridge. There are is now only half of it a few pieces left. of the once long bridge.

It did not wash away quickly. One piece of the bridge was slowly leaning and not connected with the bank. It slowly leant down and then crashed in the water and just like a domino bridge game, one by one the other bits of the structure the bridge fell to the depths too.

The citizens of waiho, the police, tourists, and people with the camera.They would have been feeling pretty worried. Luckily, no one was hurt. The construction works now include raising the bridge.

In conclusion I think that it is bad that the waiho bridge has collapsed because it is nearly the school holidays and people will need to travel go on it. Hopefully the builders will work quickly. That bridge is important where holidays are concerned.
