Tender Process for Victoria Falls Road Rehab Underway

(3 Minutes read)

Once the committee completes its assessment, the Special Procurement Oversight Committee will further review the findings to ensure full compliance with national procurement regulations before any contracts are awarded.

The Zimbabwe Ministry of Transport and Infrastructural Development has confirmed that the tendering process for the Victoria Falls road rehabilitation project is still ongoing, following the retraction of an inaccurate social media post.

In a statement issued, the Ministry’s Permanent Secretary, Engineer Joy Makumbe, clarified that the process remains in its evaluation phase and that no contractors have been appointed yet. She attributed the error to a ministry officer who posted the message without verifying the facts with the Department of Roads, thereby breaching internal Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) on information dissemination.

The tender for the rehabilitation project was initially advertised on 17 April 2025 and officially closed on 29 April at 11:00 AM. The Ministry has since begun a thorough bid evaluation process led by a designated committee.
