GOVERNMENT has assured that all infrastructural projects being conducted will be completed on time in line with President Mnangagwa’s vision of achieving an empowered, upper-middle-income society by 2030.
This comes after last week, President Mnagagwa commissioned the US$88 million Trabablas Interchange project located at the intersection of Simon Mazorodze, Chitungwiza and High Glen roads, which is a key infrastructure development aimed at alleviating traffic congestion in southern Harare.
Transport and Infrastructural Development Minister Felix Mhona outlined some of the projects that the Government is currently undertaking which include construction of roads, bridges and border posts.
“With the successful completion of this project (Trabablas Interchange), which was once a symbol of traffic jams and gridlocks in Harare; we are one step closer to achieving His Excellency, President Cde Dr Emmerson Dambudzo Mnangagwa’s vision of an empowered, upper-middle-income society in Zimbabwe by 2030,” he said.
“I would want to reiterate the commitment of my Ministry, to the continuous development of our infrastructure to attain this Vision.
“We shall strive to ensure that our roads, railroads, inland waterways, airports, and other critical infrastructure meet world-class standards to facilitate national development.
“With this development, we have been emboldened and galvanised to sustain the pace, as we move forward with enthusiasm and determination, with the great hope of doing more to deliver a more prosperous Zimbabwe, where urban mobility and transit facilitation from one end of the conurbation to the other, should not be a nightmare.”
He said that all these developments are a result of President Mnangagwa’s leadership.
“Your hands-on approach to development, your passion for ensuring that no persons and no places are left behind, your illuminating mantra of a Zimbabwe which has opened for business, your unyielding conviction and passion for solutions which reside in the call of ‘Nyika inovakwa Nevene Vayo have echoed far and wide, and have become our guiding developmental campus,” he said.
“Indeed, these nuggets of wisdom shall be remembered as the hallmark of your transformational leadership.”
