A bridge located on the border of Central China's Henan and Hubei provinces has become the only way for residents in Zhaiwan village, Hubei, to get their daily supplies since the outbreak of the novel coronavirus.

The bridge linking Panguanzhuang village, Wuxing town, Henan with Zhaiwan is also called "Friendship Bridge" by both sides because it has built friendship and affection between the two villages since its construction.

Before the epidemic, villagers in Zhaiwan usually bought necessities from markets in Wuxing.

Due to epidemic prevention and control measures, the two villages set up roadblocks at both ends of the bridge, which caused great difficulties for Zhaiwan villagers.

In order to help solve the problems, Panguanzhuang decided to set a temporary market on the bridge every three to five days, providing daily necessaries for Zhaiwan in order to ensure the safety of both sides.
