Yei River County Commissioner on Thursday urged the state and national ministries of Roads and Bridges to urgently repair the road for the stranded vehicles to take goods to other states.
Bidali Cosmas Wori warned that if the worsening condition continues, it would negatively impact on service delivery, Easter Radio reported.
County Roads and Bridges Acting Assistant Commissioner Anthony Philip Moga revealed that there are about 400 vehicles stuck with drivers and their assistants facing dire conditions.
He lamented that the presence of such a big population prompted school children to resort to tea selling business instead of concentrating on studies.
The leaders urged citizens and traders to be patient as efforts are underway to repair the road.
