ZINARA Borrows $600 Million For Roads Rehabilitation
The Zimbabwe National Road Administration (ZINARA) has borrowed $600 million from Nedbank for the Emergency Road Rehabilitation Programme 2 (ERRP2).
The Government gave a guarantee that the money will be repaid by the end of May.
The Herald reported that ZINARA has a substantial daily inflow of revenue from its toll gates and vehicle licence fees, but occasionally borrows to speed up progress or to finance a major set of roadworks.
The notice of the guarantee was gazetted by Finance and Economic Development Minister Mthuli Ncube as 131H of 2023. Said Ncube:
The guarantee is surety to Nedbank Zimbabwe Limited that Government will honour ZINARA’s obligations under the composite bridging facility for road rehabilitation works for the Emergency Road Rehabilitation Programme Phase 2 project in the event that ZINARA defaults on its contractual obligations.
