Message: [QUOTE="Munyaradzi Mafaro, post: 76227, member: 636"] Shurugwi Town Council secretary Archibald Ncube says water infrastructure is basically falling apart while the population keeps climbing toward 30,000 people by the end of the decade. The small mining town held a planning session to map out priorities that match up with the government's National Development Strategy 2 blueprint, and aging pipes plus busted pumping systems are at the top of the list for fixes. Council wants businesses to start going vertical with high-rise construction since there's barely any land left to expand on. They're also looking to grab road equipment and add maternity wings to some clinics that don't have them yet. The 2022 census counted 22,000 residents, but that number is expected to jump significantly over the next five years, which means the town needs serious upgrades to handle the growth. [/QUOTE]
