Mbare makeover brings new life to old trade hub

Harare city has started fixing up old places. Mbare comes first under this big plan. The goal? Turn Mbare into a busy business center that tourists want to visit. Workers have already begun building a new market. They also fix all roads in the area.

Minister Charles Tavengwa talks about how important Mbare is to Harare. He says they plan to make life better for everyone who lives there. His team wants to bring back pride to this special part of town and create more chances for local people to succeed.

The city has added more lights on streets, police walk around more often, and new ways to handle trash make streets cleaner. Safety matters most in these changes, and Minister Tavengwa works with police and local groups to keep everyone safe.

Mbare is at the top of the list for improving things. The plan includes better houses, clean water systems, buses, and parks. "People who live in Mbare deserve good lives," said Tavengwa. His team aims to fix problems that have lasted many years.

Tendai Mafoti runs the building projects. He explains that they want to make Mbare famous again for business. Bad roads and old buildings had kept visitors away for years. The team is making roads wider, adding new surfaces and better signs. These changes help cars move faster and make walking safer for everyone. Mafoti says other cities in Zimbabwe will see similar fixes soon.
