The issue stemmed from the long-neglected Namnai Bridge, which remains in critical disrepair and has worsened transportation difficulties.

The bridge, which collapsed last year, has not received significant attention from authorities, worsening commuter and motorist challenges.

Government Inaction and Impassable Roads Deepen Crisis
Although the state government previously claimed a contract was awarded, no visible reconstruction work has begun on-site.

The recent downpour rendered the route completely impassable, further straining the already fragile transportation network in Gassol.

Eyewitnesses reported severe disruptions, with flooding preventing movement and leaving numerous passengers stranded in harsh conditions.

Stranded Travelers Urge Government to Expedite Repairs
One affected traveler, Chichi, described the situation as “the worst” when speaking with reporters at the scene.

Another commuter, Daniel Amos, stated he had been stuck for over an hour and called for immediate intervention.

He urged the government to expedite action and mobilize contractors to the site to prevent further hardship.
