NEW: Ultimatum for Mbudzi illegal settlers

Online Reporter

OVER 320 illegal settlers at the area popularly known as ‘Mbudzi roundabout’ in Harare should vacate to allow construction of the vital interchange, Harare City Council has said.

In a statement on Tuesday, the local authority expressed concern over illegal settlers at the traffic circle.

“Council has served 48-hour notices to over 320 people settled on the Mbudzi interchange road reserve. The notices encourage the residents to remove their structures without council assistance which normally comes in the form of dozers.

“The road interchange is a national project. Affected residents will be allocated space elsewhere. A committee to address the issue is working on the matter,” reads the statement.

Contractors are already working on detour roads that will be used during major works at the roundabout.
