Kyungu bridge in Karonga district which is along the Songwe border on the M1 road has partly been damaged due to heavy rains causing the road impassable.
Last year the same bridge got damaged and two people died after vehicle they were travelling in fell into the river.
Government had to hire Malawi Defence Force (MDF) soldiers to maintain the bridge on behalf of the Roads Authority.
Meanwhile, the Roads Authority is yet to comment on the matter.
