Vumbwi Constituency in Chadiza district has been cut off from the rest of the Eastern Province due to the collapse of all the bridges along the Chadiza/Vubwi road.
Vubwi is only accessible by road through Malawi where the road is better than the shorter Chadiza/Vubwi road route.
Chadiza District Commissioner, Maximo Chitambi, confirmed the development to ZANIS and appealed to the Road Development Agency (RDA) to seriously consider engaging a contractor to work on the road.
Mr. Chitambi said the bad state of the road has subjected people in Vubwi to a lot of hardships as they have to pass through Muchinji in Malawi in order to access Chadiza and Chipata districts.
The District Commissioner said the alternative route which passes through Mwami border also needs to be worked on.
He said the people of Vubwi did not feel part of Chadiza district because the poor state of the road has completely isolated them from the rest of the province.
Mr. Chitambi explained that it was difficult to carry out government projects in the area because of the impassable roads.
He said Vubwi was an agricultural production area which needs a good road network for farmers to effectively carry out their business.
Mr. Chitambi pleaded with RDA to work on the bridges that have collapsed, saying it would be unimaginable how the roads will be if left unattended to before the onset of the next rainy season.
He said apart from the bridges that need to be constructed, the entire road needs a complete facelift as it cannot be called a road in its current state.
Mr. Chitambi said the Chadiza/Vubwi road has not been worked on for five years now while the Mwami/Vubwi road only receive some minor works two years ago.
