The City of Bulawayo has launched an immediate enforcement operation targeting vehicles with outstanding traffic fines. The initiative focuses on buses, kombis, and pirate taxis previously cited for violations like loading passengers at unauthorized locations under the city's clamping and tow-away regulations.
Authorities will impound and tow any vehicle identified with unpaid fines to a municipal storage facility. Owners must then pay the original penalty plus new charges for towing and storage to secure their vehicle's release.
The city also issued a warning to informal traders at official vending sites, stating they must promptly settle all overdue annual license fees and monthly rentals. Officials urged all residents and businesses with municipal arrears to comply to avoid operational disruptions.
