Construction Of The Mbudzi Flyover Set To Begin By January Next Year
Construction of the Mbudzi flyover is set to begin by January next year after Government flighted the tender. Government and Harare City Council have moved to ease congestion through the construction of flyovers, roundabouts and widening of problematic roads.
Harare City Council is already upgrading the bypasses to be used during the construction of the overpass.
Local Government, Public Works and National Housing Minister July Moyo recently tasked council to make provision for modern roads in their review of the master plan.
Council chief engineer of works George Munyonga confirmed the development.
Said Munyonga:
If you have noticed, a tender has already been floated in the paper by the Ministry of Transport because that is a regional trunk route.The maintenance of that road is vested with the Department of Roads. The tenders are actually closing this week.
We are dealing with the bypasses that are going to be put during the construction phase. The design is going to take two to three months. During those two to three months we are going to be constructing and upgrading the bypasses that we are going to use during the construction of the road.
