Online Reporter

MBUDZI TRAFFIC INTERCHANGE, which is now known as Trabablas Interchange, is now 90 percent complete, the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructural Development announced Wednesday on its X handle.

Government recently announced that the US$88 million project would likely be finalised by May 31.

The project, located at the intersection of Simon Mazorodze Road, Chitungwiza Road and High Glen Road, is a key infrastructure development aimed at alleviating traffic congestion in southern Harare.

It features 15 bridges, all of which have been completed.

The Mbudzi Interchange is expected to significantly improve traffic flow, reduce transit times and minimise accidents in the area.

It is being funded through local financial institutions and executed by a joint venture of three local construction companies — Tensor Systems, Fossil Contracting and Masimba Construction — operating under the banner of Tefoma Construction.
