Woodstock Bridge damaged by truck
Anele Siwa30 October 2007
The City of Cape Town is warning pedestrians to be extra careful when crossing the Lower Church Street Woodstock Bridge over the N1.
“A large truck carrying a heavy load of papers forced the driver to pull over to the side of the road on to the side walk,” says City spokesperson Charles Cooper.
Cooper added that the sidewalk consists of concrete slabs which hide service cables and water pipes.
“The truck is not designed to carry a heavy load,” says Cooper.
Cooper says that the truck cracked concrete slabs, but that fortunately the railway line below the bridge is not working at the moment.
