Kalulushi Mayor Daudi Simama has welcomed the commencement of road works at the Bell Junction, the busy intersection of the Kitwe-Kalulushi and Sabina roads.<\/p>\n
Mr Simama said the Road Development Agency (RDA) has mobilized to construct a concrete road that will be durable and ease traffic flow.<\/p>\n
He noted that Forte Group, a local investor, had considered shutting down due to emissions caused by the poor road condition, but the works will now safeguard their operations.<\/p>\n
RDA Regional Manager Chibamba Chipepo confirmed the project has begun with diversions to minimize disruption, adding that completion is expected within three months.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Kalulushi Town Clerk Betty Liswaniso expressed satisfaction, stating that the road\u2019s deplorable state had caused heavy congestion despite council patching efforts.<\/p>\n
She welcomed government\u2019s intervention to deliver lasting works.<\/p>\n
ZANIS reports that Copperbelt Minister Elisha Matambo recently announced that K1 million has been released to start the project, which will cost K7 million in total.<\/p>\n
