Blitz triggers transport woes
Felex Share Herald Reporter
ACUTE transport problems left hundreds of commuters stranded in Harare yesterday when a joint council and police blitz on kombis and vendors got underway.
Heavy police presence at drop-off and pick-up points in the city and roads leading into the city centre forced most commuter omnibus operators to withdraw their services.
Some kombi crews were dropping off passengers on the outskirts of the city, forcing them to walk long distances into the Central Business District. The operation is aimed at decongesting the CBD.
Kombis without proper documents were not allowed into town, while most of them were impounded. Those with proper documents cashed in on the situation and increa-sed fares to between US$1 and US$2, up from US$0,50 per trip.
In the morning, hundreds of commuters had to walk to their respective workplaces after being dropped off several kilometres from their usual ranks and terminuses.
The situation was worse after working hours.
Buses from Budiriro, Glen View, Glen Norah, Southerton and Highfield were dropping off commuters several kilometres away from the CBD to evade the police.
