Last month, vendors operating at the Havana four-way stop took issue with the municipality after they were relocated to pave way for development.<\/p>\n<p>However, the city\u2019s spokesperson Harold Akwenye confirmed that they are in the process of relocating the households located in the Monte Christo Road reserve.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe have already issued a notice. The relocation will pave way for the implementation of the City of Windhoek Transportation Master Plan while improving the standards of living of residents,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Vendors who spoke to New Era said although the city did not specify the exact date, they will be relocated. However, they are happy that they will now continue with their business without any inconveniences.<\/p>\n<p>Last month, the aggrieved vendors and City Police officers clashed following orders to relocate to a different site within the area to pave way for the construction of the Ongos Valley road. They argued the new site was too small, untidy and congested.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/namibia\">Namibia<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Namibia.
