A total of 2,413 people or 613 families in the Surgorongan Mudiak Simpang, Talama District, West Pasaman Regency, West Sumatra are threatened with isolation because the bridge to the area was eroded and almost collapsed due to the impact of the water flow of the Batang Sopan.
"The bridge was badly eroded due to the impact of river water which grew due to rain that occurred from Thursday (13/7) afternoon to Juma," said Talamau sub-district head Andre Affandi as quoted by ANTARA, Friday, July 14.
As a result of the impact of the water, the bridge was very badly eroded and almost collapsed.
"The bridge is the only public access from Timbo Abu to Mudiak Simpang. If it collapses, the residents will be isolated," he said.
He asked residents to be careful when crossing the bridge because it was prone to collapse.
