VICTORIA FALLS tourism players have successfully lobbied the Transport and Infrastructure Development ministry to stop erecting a tollgate along Kazungula Road to save the environment and avert duplication since the border post has another tollgate.
NATIONAL Railways of Zimbabwe acting general manager Lewis Mukwada yesterday told Parliament that the parastatal had no plans to reintroduce the “freedom trains” project as the move had proved to be non-viable.
THE TRANSPORT and Infrastructure Development ministry has expressed concern over unregistered vehicles donated by the Reserve Bank of Zimbabwe (RBZ) to various institutions and individuals saying they were a nuisance at tollgates.
ZIMBABWE is the only country in the Sadc region without a Road Accident Fund to compensate road traffic accident victims, leaving them in dire straits as they can only claim compensation from third party insurance companies.
TRANSPORT and Infrastructure Development ministry is mulling an upward review of the minimum age of drivers for public service vehicles to halt the carnage on the roads.
