YOUTH and Sports Minister Chishimba Kambwili has directed Shanghai Construction Company to start working on the access roads at National Heroes Stadium in Lusaka.
Mr Kambwili said since the 20 per cent payment of the total K115,000 of the project has been paid, it was now time for the contractor to start working on the project and ensure that it was done before October.
“We want to host the Zambia 50 years anniversary in the stadium, so I direct the contractor to start the work now and finish before October,” he said.
The minister was speaking on the sidelines of a signing ceremony between Road Development Agency (RDA) and CADG Zambia Limited for the periodic maintenance of Lot 2 of Mpika-Kasama Road, 86km from Chambeshi Bridge to Kasama in Muchinga and Northern provinces, at the RDA offices in Lusaka yesterday.
The contract, whose sum total is K155,887,137.80, is expected to be done within 12 months with scopes of work that include pothole patching, construction of shoulders, reconstruction of selected sections, and repair and replacement of drainage structures and road furniture.
RDA chief executive officer Bernard Chiwala said the project would commence within three months from the date of signing of the contract.
“A total of seven companies participated in the bid which CADG Zambia Limited won,” he said.
Mr Chiwala said once the project was completed, the road would enhance smooth passage of goods and services between Muchinga and Northern provinces.
