Eng. Zulu disclosed that RDA has since engaged a contractor to start the patch up works before the real works of working on the road commence after the 2020\/2021 rainy season.<\/p>\n

Eng. Zulu stated that because of the rains the road cannot be entirely worked on but only patched to prevent vehicles from getting stuck.<\/p>\n

He added that RDA is aware of other roads that are almost deplorable such as the Mansa-Musaila-Samfya road.<\/p>\n

Eng. Zulu noted that the contractor has been told to be on sight and start patching up the road.<\/p>\n

He pointed out that just after the rain season, RDA will be busy working on the roads around the province.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
