A Beitbridge man employed by Bitumen World and his lover were on Saturday night fatally crushed by a goods train on the railway line about 60 kilometres north of Beitbridge along the track to Rutenga.
The man was off duty and apparently was spending some time with his lover on the rail line when they were crushed to death.
When contacted for a comment by <a href="https://www.newsday.co.zw/local-news/article/200016484/goods-train-crushes-beitbridge-lovebirds">NewsDay</a>, ZRP’s officer commanding Beitbridge Police District Chief Superintendent Tichaona Nyongo said he was not in the district and was not aware of the incident.
However, Bitumen World director Andre Zietsman confirmed the incident to NewsDay, saying their employee was off duty when he died.
<blockquote>
Yes, in his off time, he went and slept on the rail tracks and unfortunately, a train crushed him.
</blockquote>
Bitumen World is one of the five companies upgrading the Harare-Beitbridge Highway and has its main camp near the site of the accident.
NewsDay reported a source as saying the now-deceased took a mattress and laid it across the rail line where he invited his lover.
It is suspected that the two were crushed to death in their sleep. Said the source:
<blockquote>
Police were, literally, picking up pieces of the two lovers after the accident.
</blockquote>
The names of the deceased were not yet to be made public.

Goods Train Crushes "Lovebirds" In Beitbridge

The contractor tasked with undertaking maintenance works on the Bulawayo-Victoria Falls Highway, Bitumen World Private Limited, says the work would likely be completed within 11 months.
Like the majority of Zimbabwe’s highways, the 400km Bulawayo-Victoria Falls Highway is badly damaged due to years of neglect.
Bitumen World’s chief executive officer, Andre Zietsman, told the <a href="https://www.chronicle.co.zw/contractor-sets-deadline-for-byo-vic-falls-road-upgrade/">Chronicle</a> that they will be filling up potholes and doing some reconstruction work from Hwange to Victoria Falls.
He was speaking on the sidelines of the ZANU PF star rally at Ndangababi Primary School in Hwange East constituency last week. Said Zietsman:
<blockquote>
Our projection is to wrap up the emergency works in roughly about 11 months.
We will be filling up potholes and doing some reconstruction work outside Hwange town towards Victoria Falls because there are some sections there that have completely degenerated.
</blockquote>
He said his company was not given a contract to reconstruct the entire highway but theirs was only on emergency works.
Just over a week ago, Zimbabwe National Road Administration (ZINARA) CEO Nkosinathi Ncube apologised to pertinent partners for the deplorable state of the road.
Ncube attributed the damage to the Bulawayo-Victoria Falls Highway to haulage trucks that transport heavy cargo from the coal mines in Hwange, saying that the loads should have been transported by rail.
He also said that sustained maintenance of such infrastructure is a challenge due to the funding gap linked to the limited fiscal space.
The Bulawayo-Victoria Falls Highway is a strategic trade route on the regional north-to-south corridor, linking Zimbabwe with South Africa, Zambia, Botswana, Namibia as well as the DRC.

11 Months To Complete Emergency Works On Bulawayo-Victoria Falls Highway - Contractor

The Government says the rehabilitation of the dilapidated Bulawayo-Victoria Falls Highway has started, with Bitumen World (Private) Limited teams already on the ground.
This follows an urgent call by motorists and business leaders for the Government to repair the badly damaged road.
Addressing delegates during the 2023 Infrastructure Summit and Expo, which was officially opened by President Emmerson Mnangagwa on Friday, Transport and Infrastructural Development Minister, Felix Mhona, said funds have been released for the rehabilitation of the road. He said:
<blockquote>
We thank His Excellency for being a listening President. You don’t just hear, but act.
Last week we were inundated with calls especially from this province (Matabeleland North) complaining about the state of Victoria Falls Road, and others were saying: ‘Minister have you driven on that road yourself?.
I want to thank you Your Excellency in that when you directed and mandated me this last week that you wanted the road works to start progressively before you land in this particular city, and precisely this has happened.
I want to thank you Your Excellency for the money you have given us, the contractor is now back on the road doing the work, and for this you deserve applause.
</blockquote>
The Bulawayo-Victoria Falls Highway is a strategic trade route on the regional north-to-south corridor, linking Zimbabwe with South Africa, Zambia, Botswana, Namibia as well as the DRC.
The deplorable state of the road has been blamed on the increased number of haulage trucks that mainly transport coal from different mining companies.
