Basically, we are separating traffics into buses, commercial, light vehicles and small commercial vehicles (“Omalayitsha”).
Soon, we are moving from a transition stage to the upgrading of the current immigration terminal and other key infrastructure.
The project’s contracts manager, Herkie Sandernbergh of Raubex Construction said some buildings will be demolished while others were set for upgrading to fit into the modernisation.
He assured Churu that they will be able to meet the deadline to finish the project.
