A ponte suspensa tem cerca de 233 metros e foi construída na época que o império britânico dominava a região. De acordo com uma emissora de TV local a estrutura ficou fechada para o público por sete meses em reforma e reabriu sem um certificado que desse aval para seu uso. Imagens feitas durante o sábado (29), mostram que ela balançava muito.
