The residents of the coastal village of St Francis Bay were cut off from the rest of the world for the second time this month after the temporary bridge collapsed following heavy rain.
Repair work is expected to start on the bridge today and it is hoped that vehicles will be able to cross the Sand River by tomorrow.
The Kouga Municipality has estimated that there is R 87 million in damage to roads and infrastructure in the Kouga following the floods experienced this month.
Roads all over Kouga have been closed or destroyed, with Oyster Bay being totally cut off with Paradise Beach and Aston bay also experiencing severe flooding.
