Sri Lanka, Oct. 24 -- The bridge built across the Hevessa canal that links Madhya Kandahena and Mahawita in Mathugama is more than 150 years old.

Built using Kitul logs, it serves around 150 families living at Mahawita, Wewella and Boralugoda villages.

They say that a new bridge is urgently required for them.
