Kendal and Waha Leaf causeways re-open

Story PictureThere is some good news to report from the south and according to NEMO, the Kendal causeway and the Waha Leaf Bridge at Mile twenty-six which were impassable yesterday because of rising waters caused by heavy rains over the weekend are now accessible.

Noreen Fairweather, Coordinator NEMO
“We had a number of flooding talking place on the southern highways. Kendal, in particular at one point in time, the water was almost five to six feet above the crossing yesterday. It’s receding now. We’re hoping by midday today the crossing will be restored and opened back to vehicular traffic.”

NEMO, however, urges motorists to exercise caution.
