The Zimbabwe Revenue Authority (ZIMRA) wishes to advise all travellers, importers, exporters, transporters, clearing agents and the general public that due to the ongoing installation works for the automatic high-rapid speed boom barrier at Forbes Border Post, the border post’s traffic handling capacity has been significantly impacted upon.
This has resulted in the closure of the east-bound traffic lane, reduction of working and parking space. This reduction in capacity has resulted in some congestion and delays in the effective passage of all traffic, both out-bound and in-bound. The delays are projected to last for the next ten (10) days during which period the installation works is expected to be completed.
The Authority regrets the inconvenience caused to all its clients transacting through Forbes Border Post, nonetheless, we believe that this project is necessary as it will go a long way in creating efficient and effective traffic management for all stakeholders.
In the meantime, stakeholders are encouraged to engage the Authority through the various communication channels should they encounter any challenges during this period.
ZIMRA remains committed to minimising any delays that may be experienced.
