72 Tollgate Employees Transferred

Intertoll Zimbabwe transferred more than 72 employees in the past two months, in a move aimed at curbing illicit activities. The firm is contracted to collect toll fees on behalf of the Zimbabwe National Road Administration (Zinara) from the nine tollgates it operates on the rehabilitated Plumtree-Mutare highway.

Intertoll Zimbabwe is the local unit of Intertoll Africa, a subsidiary of South African engineering firm, Group Five. Group Five rehabilitated the 800km highway under a $206 million loan from the Development Bank of South Africa. Employees who spoke to The Herald yesterday confirmed the development and said they were staying in hotels before they found their own accommodation with the bills being charged on Zinara’s account.
