New steps to ease border congestion

Thupeyo Muleya Beitbridge Bureau
CONGESTION at Beitbridge Border Post has forced the Government to intervene and en-force recommendations made last year for the smooth movement of both human and vehi­cle traffic.

Passing through the border post in the last few days had become a nightmare as in some cases it took more than eight hours for a per­son to go through.

There were long, winding queues on the Zimbabwean side of the border.
Finance Minister Tendai Biti and toured the border post yesterday.

The ministers ensured traffic was sep­arated into returning residents, buses, tourists and visitors, commercial and private motorists for easy clearance.
Prior to this, the Zimbabwe Revenue Authority and the Department of Immigra­tion were lumping the traffic, causing conges­tion.
