Aisha had to wake up early on school days, but was set to be late for school when the ferry service was postponed or suspended due to rough seas.

"I was so afraid when there were high waves in the sea. Anyway, after the bridge is built, I won't need to get up at 5 o'clock in the morning anymore!" she grinned.

Echoing Aisha, university student Nahula Ali, who also lives in Hulhumale, said bad weather made her miss at least two exams when she was a senior high school student before the opening of the bridge.

"The bridge has made our life more convenient," she told Xinhua.
