About 300 residents have to walk a kilometer with their groceries to their homes as vehicles cannot go pass because of the inaccessibility due to a broken culvert.

Villagers of Koio, in Wailoku are pleading to the relevant authorities to fix the culvert.

In worst cases, some have to travel more than a kilometer after getting off the bus.

Village headman Taione Talemaitoga said school children and workers are the worst affected.
