We are well aware that some people have created side roads to avoid normal routes, we have the information.
Some of these buses were caught in thickets avoiding the Masvingo-Beitbridge Road.
Under the Level Four lockdown regulations, inter-city travel has been banned while intracity travel is only reserved for ZUPCO affiliated buses and kombis.
However, some transport operators have defied the ban, in some cases operating at night to avoid arrest.
Non-essential movement between 6.30 pm and 6 am is also banned as part of measures put in place by the government to curb the spread of the coronavirus.
