The rehabilitation of the Kadoma-Sanyati-Nembudziya Road has finally begun, with the contractor already on site, according to Transport and Infrastructural Development Minister Felix Mhona.
“The contractor is already on the ground for the works and we are confident the road will be completed,” Minister Mhona stated.
This development is crucial as the road is the main access route to Nembudziya Growth Point in Gokwe North, where Zimbabwe’s 2025 national independence celebrations will be held.
The project’s completion is also expected to boost economic growth in the region. The Kadoma-Sanyati-Nembudziya road connects several major towns, including Kadoma, Sanyati, and Nembudziya, and its upgrade will improve transportation and accessibility.
In related news, the government has made significant progress on the Shurugwi-Mhandamabwe Road reconstruction project. Over 30 kilometers of the 43-kilometer road have been completed, with the remaining 13 kilometers currently underway.
This project is vital for the growth of the Midlands provincial Gross Domestic Product.
Key Road Rehabilitation Projects:
- Kadoma-Sanyati-Nembudziya Road: Upgrading and rehabilitation underway
- Shurugwi-Mhandamabwe Road: 30km completed, 13km remaining
- Beitbridge-Bulawayo-Victoria Falls Highway: Rehabilitation planned
- Bulawayo-Nkayi Road: Rehabilitation planned
- Kwekwe-Lupane-Nkayi Road: Rehabilitation planned.
These projects are part of the Second Republic’s efforts to modernize Zimbabwe’s road network and improve accessibility. With over 50,000 kilometers of roads already rehabilitated or reconstructed, and 2,000 structures attended to, the government is committed to ensuring roads are usable and in good condition.
