Harare battles refuse collection in CBD

Municipal Reporter

The Harare City Council is struggling to collect garbage at refuse collection collects since last month with a lot of areas including the central business district (CBD) becoming a health hazard.

Among the most affected areas in the CBD is Market Square Bus Terminus and at the corner of Charter Road and Rezende Street where mounds of refuse have been collecting.

Harare City Council spokesperson Mr Michael Chideme said the local authority was incapacitated to collect refuse from all areas at once.

“We are short of refuse trucks. However, with the few refuse trucks we have, we are making plans to rotate so that all areas are covered,” he said.
