TRANSPORT and Infrastructural Development Minister Felix Mhona says the opening of Solomon Mujuru Drive, formerly Kirkman Road, represents another milestone as the face of the country’s road network continues to change.
Solomon Mujuru Drive, which is a major road in Harare, was officially opened yesterday.
Speaking at the ceremony, Min Mhona said:
“This momentous occasion represents not just the completion of a critical infrastructure project, but a significant step forward in our ongoing efforts to enhance mobility, accessibility and economic growth in both Harare Metropolitan and Mashonaland West Province.
“The congestion that had plagued our streets for too long had hindered not only our daily commuters but also the economic vitality of our communities.
“With the opening to traffic of Solomon Mujuru Road, we are taking a substantial stride towards alleviating this issue.
“As you can see we are trying to maintain and make our roads better.
“Mining companies, brick moulding and quarry companies, who have been using our roads but not partaking in its maintenance, will be consulted door-to-door because their activities contribute to the erosion of the roads. We are going to be fixing more roads as we go.”
