The Minister of State for Provincial Affairs and Devolution, Honourable Judith Ncube, and members of the Joint Operations Command (JOC) Bulawayo Metropolitan Province on Tuesday toured major infrastructure projects , including road construction works along Matopos Road and Lobengula Street.
The assessment visit was aimed at identifying opportunities and challenges affecting service delivery in the city.
The Ministry of Transport and Infrastructural Development is overseeing construction works on Matopos Road, while the City of Bulawayo is undertaking the reconstruction of Lobengula Street.
During the tour of the Matopos Road, officials revealed that the project is expected to be completed by 3 July, after which the road will be reopened to the motoring public.
The delegation also visited a section of Lobengula Street and 3rd Avenue, where they observed progress of the ongoing works. 3rd Avenue Extension and Lobengula Street from 3rd to 4th Avenue has already been reconstructed, giving the road a lifespan of up to 20 years.
Acting Director of Works Engineer Methusi Dibidi briefed the delegation on progress made on the road projects and provided an update on other initiatives being implemented across the city. He noted that shortages of equipment remain one of the key challenges affecting the execution of some projects.
In response, Minister Ncube said she would continue lobbying Central Government for the release of the 2025 Devolution Funds, which she said are critical for recapitalisation projects and the procurement of a new vehicle fleet to improve service delivery in Bulawayo, including road works.
