Tinotumira kwamuri inosvika. WhatsApp: 0️⃣7️⃣8️⃣3️⃣ 4️⃣5️⃣0️⃣ 7️⃣9️⃣3️⃣ ---------- > The Combined Harare Residents Association notes the declaration of a state of disaster with regards the state of roads in Harare by the Minister of Local Government, Public Works and National Housing, Honorable Savior Kasukuwere. > It is a fact that most roads in Harare have become virtually impassable and have become a huge risk to motorists. > However, as CHRA we would like to reiterate our call for the management of vehicle license fees to be returned to the Harare City Council from the Zimbabwe National Road Administration (ZINARA). > Since ZINARA took over management of the vehicle license fees, there has been a marked decline in the quality of roads in Harare. > To make matters worse, the local authority has been receiving paltry allocations for road repairs and in 2016, ZINARA disbursed $1, 3 million against an annual demand of between $40-$70 million. > ZINARA’s role has simply been to cripple the Harare City Council as far as maintenance of the capital city’s road network is concerned. > In 2009, it was reported that the City of Harare collected $10 million a year from road vehicle license fees and that money would go towards road maintenance. > Given the increasing vehicle population in the capital, it is possible that council by now could be collecting the required annual amount of between $40-$70 million for road maintenance. > The fact of the matter here is that we cannot expect much from the Harare City Council on road maintenance when they have very little resources being allocated to them. > The Combined Harare Residents Association reiterates its position that ZINARA has no business managing vehicle license fees and this must be the sole responsibility of the Harare City Council. _If you found this article useful_ *Please support Pindula by forwarding to friends and groups*
