Calls for more to be done to protect roads and bridges on the West Coast
9 April 2019
The Waiho Bridge, which washed away two weeks ago is due to re-open by Friday.
It's cut off the road between Fox and Franz Josef.
West Coast Tourism Chief Executive Jim Little says State Highway 6 needs proper permanent bridges and facilities in place so while they will always be at the mercy of severe weather events, things can be done to avoid losing bridges.
