RDA posts significant progress in road projects in 2025

The Road Development Agency (RDA) has announced major milestones achieved in Zambia’s road sector in 2025 around the country.

The agency indicated that remarkable progress has been made under both Public Private Partnerships (PPP) and government funded projects.

Speaking at the end of year media briefing in Lusaka today, RDA Board Chairperson, Eugene Haazele, one of the major achievements is the Lusaka–Ndola dual carriageway project under the Public Private Partnership financing model.

He said the Lusaka-Ndola dual carriage way is now at over 58.5 percent complete with 236.15 kilometres of asphalt surfacing laid, while progress on the Ndola-Sakania-Mufulira road in the Copperbelt Province is at over 16 percent.

He added that the cumulative physical progress for the road works on the Kasomeno-Mwenda road and bridge infrastructure stands at 15.5 percent.

Mr Haazele, who cited progress in many other road and other related infrastructure, told journalists that the RDA remains focused on enhancing connectivity, promoting economic growth, improving road safety, and integrating rural communities into the broader economy.
