The Fiji Roads Authority has completed repair works on the sunken approach to the Tamavua-i-Wai Bridge.
Thousands of people were stuck in traffic for several hours this morning as only one lane of the bridge was open due to these repair works.
FRA had said that the approach to the bridge had sunk because of heavy rain last night and a heavy load of vehicles travelling along the road.
They say the bridge needed to be uplifted and immediate works were needed to be done so that it would not damage vehicles.
They have also said the damage became visible late last night and to avoid further deterioration, the repair work required reinforcement so that another heavy rain does not damage the road again.
