I don't remember exactly what this level looks like, but if you have an
extra bridge you can make a lemming change direction with it.  The land
past the arrow wall must be rough and bumpy for this to work.  When the
lemming is in a crevice or small valley between bumps, make it a builder.
If two or three of the bridge segments laid end up intersecting the ground,
the lemming will stop building and turn around.  This may or may not help
you on this level.

Good luck... now does anyone have any hints for Taxing 26?  :-)
