Heavy Vehicle Users To Repair Damaged Roads

Heavy Vehicle Users To Repair Damaged Roads

Mining companies, brick moulding firms, and other heavy vehicle users that damage roads will be required to repair them and may face heavy fines for harming newly rehabilitated roads, a cabinet minister has said.

Transport and Infrastructural Development Minister Felix Mhona said road users who cause damage must contribute to the reconstruction efforts, rather than leaving the financial burden solely on the government.

He was speaking during the official opening of a 5km stretch of Solomon Mujuru Drive (formerly Kirkman Road) in Harare’s Dzivaresekwa Extension suburb on Monday. Mhona said (via The Herald):

I am sure we need to disseminate this very loud and clear message to the people of Zimbabwe, to say we have road users, especially companies, mining companies, brick moulding companies, quarry companies, just to mention a few, which have been using our roads, but not partaking in the exercise of maintaining our roads.

We are saying going forward, whoever is using our roads has to account to the people of Zimbabwe, not necessarily to say we are punishing the road users, but it actually makes sense for us to then say “this is our road, let’s look after it”.

Mhona said he will consult with the Ministers of Industry and Commerce, as well as Mines and Mining Development, to explore ways to ensure that mining companies and those involved in transporting goods contribute to road repairs.

He added that people must “take ownership of our infrastructure, against vandalism”, including road signs.

Every time you speak it's just a command dictatorship. Take your stories to parliament for debate and that one for radio licenses. You don't just wake up and command everything

There were rules concerning these things before Zanu PF induced lawlessness ravaged everything in its wake. If you go to older areas like Hatfield you will still find the now dilapidated signs prohibiting heavy tonnage vehicles from using their roads as they weren't built for that but now you constantly see trucks plying routes such as Masotcha Ndlovu, of course they're gonna destroy it . Roads should be built according to who is going to use them, concrete for heavy traffic and loads and the asphalt ones for low traffic and loads, not to go around saying certain firms need to fix roads. Of course mining companies will help to maintain the outpost roads that they use but urban roads will definitely prove to be problematic because those firms already pay various fees for their vehicles and they won't be thrilled about having to be double taxed , this will just lead to chaos , that's why the previous system of prohibiting certain vehicles from certain roads was beneficial.

I once said and I will say it again mhona is an accountant not a an engineer. He is not good in engineering. Roads are for traffic. All the roads you complaining about are over 45 years Make quality roads you will never experience this. There are not only asphalt road there are also concrete roads.

THANX CDE MHONA WE HAVE CHINESE ALLOVER ZIMBABWE WITH HEAVY TRUCKS CARRYING CHROME BUT THEY DON'T MAINTAIN OR REPAIR ROADS. THATS AN EXERCISE THEY ARE NOT INTERESTED IN. THESE TRUCKS EVEN BLOW DUST INTO OUR RESPECTED HOMES BUT THEY JUST CANT SPRINKLE WATER ON THE RAVAGED DUST ROADS. WITHOUT PROPER LAWS IN PLACE THOSE GUYS WON'T ACT. WE HAVE COMPLAINED OVER AND OVER BUT INVAIN. ON THE OTHER SIDE HONESTLY PRAISE AND GRATITUDE MUST BE BESTOWED ON J R GODDARD. THAT COMPANY IS VERY EFFICIENT. IT REPAIRS AND UPGRADES ROADS WHEREVER THEY OPERATE. GOOD WORK IS IN PROGRESS. KEEP IT UP . JABULANI KHUPELA!!!

And again it's going to be the formal industry that will bear the brunt. How do they intend to penalise the informal transporters, who, in most cases, operate out of the confines of the law??
