YOUNG PEOPLE from Kaisenik Village in Wau have used their own initiative to rebuild the broken Mabung Bridge.
This was to allow for vehicles to transport Sunday School children from Evangelical Lutheran Church of PNG Mumeng District to attend their three-day conference at Kaisenik from Sept 20-23.
Part of the bridge's timber flooring broke six months ago.
This left big holes on top of the bridge which made it dangerous for vehicles to cross over.
Kaisenik village spokesman Joel Yawing said:."Wau Rural LLG had no money to purchase timber to carry out proper maintenance work on the bridge and reopen it to all traffic."
Young people who were preparing to host the conference took upon themselves to cut trees for timber for the bridge.
They managed to reopen the bridge for delegates from the five zones within ELCPNG Mumeng District to travel to Kaisenik Village to attend the three-day conference.
