RDA calls for increased investiment

The Road Development Agency (RDA) has called for more investment in the road sector in the country.

RDA Head of Public Relations Loice Saili says this would be of great assistance in the development of roads
across the country.

Ms. Saili told ZANIS in an interview in Lusaka today that what the Agency wants was to see a good road network in the nation.

Meanwhile, Ms. Saili has since dismissed claims from sections of society that the Agency has neglected the repairing of some roads in some parts of the country.

She said it was very unfair for members of the public to accuse the RDA of neglecting and failing to repair some roads in some parts of Zambia .

Ms. Saili added that the Agency was very committed to develop and to see a good road network in the country.

She said this was because the RDA knows and understands that a good road network was vital to the economic development of the country.

Ms. Saili said it was just that the Agency needs more resources to carry out repair works on some roads across the nation.

She said RDA has a road working plan put up that helps the Agency to know which roads need to be repaired on.

Ms. Saili said the Agency does do surveys across the country in order to know which roads need to be worked on by RDA.

  1. Don’t lie and tell the people why you pay contractors without checking if the job is done.

    Stop giving priorities to Banda projects that only try to buy the locals.

    Stand up and be men not wimps and tell Banda to shove off and stop prioritizing your works.

  2. Can i lease Lusaka to Livingstone road and create a tollway?
    It would be the smoothest and strongest road in Zambia but i will make you pay for 35 years on my lease.

  3. It is INVESTMENT not INVESTIMENT, what’s up with LT. Just the title mistakes make you sick to the bone

  4. Haa…aba nabena. After you have stolen money and bootlicked RB’s road building shoes you want to tell lies to Zambians? Muleumfwako Insoni imwe……Very useless person who just agrees to RB even when there are no monies for un budgeted for roads. Ata bane twaleni uko ubupuba!!!![-([-([-(
