Building a Bridge with Renewable Materials

We had to expand our drainage system to accommodate the heavy winter rainfall.  This resulted in quite a large gully in the middle of the primary pathway to our house.


We used saplings and off-cuts of lumber to build a simple, yet strong bridge that spans the spillway comfortably .


The new bridge makes it much easier to carry the 50kg sacks of cement that we need to continue building inside our house, as well as groceries.
