Government Targets Traffic Relief As New Harare Interchange Nears Completion

Minister of Transport and Infrastructural Development Hon  Felix Mhona today toured the ongoing construction works of the new Cloverleaf Interchange at the intersection of Harare Drive and Joshua Mqabuko Nkomo Road, formerly Airport Road, as Government continues implementing major infrastructure projects aimed at modernising the country’s road network.

The transformative project forms part of Government’s ongoing efforts “to decongest one of Harare’s busiest transport corridors, improve travel times to R.G. Mugabe International Airport, and enhance road safety for all road users.”

Addressing journalists during the tour, Hon. Adv. Mhona described the project as “a long-awaited development milestone,” while applauding Emmerson Mnangagwa for championing infrastructure modernisation and development across the country.

The Minister also reaffirmed the Ministry’s commitment to “accountability and delivering quality infrastructure that directly benefits citizens.”

Upon completion, the interchange project is expected to pave the way for the development of “10 additional interchanges from Glenara and associated routes,” a move expected to significantly improve traffic flow within Harare.

The tour was attended by Permanent Secretary Engineer Joy Pedzisai Makumbe, heads of parastatals and other senior Government officials.
