Zimbabwe - Ministry of Transport and Infrastructural Development

<p>ZiZaBoNa creates a new Western Transmission Corridor in Southern Africa, by linking the power systems of Zimbabwe, Zambia, Botswana and Namibia. This part of the project involves the construction of a 76 km / 330 kV transmission interconnector from Pandamatenga Substation (Botswana) to Victoria Falls Substation (Zimbabwe), with a transmission capacity of 300 MW.</p>

<p>The AXIS Project aims to facilitate the development of an African internet infrastructure through policy and regulatory reform, capacity building and technical assistance. Development of an African internet infrastructure refers to the establishment of regional internet exchange points (IXPs) and internet carriers.</p>

<p>The AXIS Project is being implemented through two phases. Phase I consists of capacity building to support the establishment of national IXPs through providing a series of two workshops for stakeholders and the Internet Service Provider Association (ISPA) on  I) best practice and benefits of IXP and II) technical assistance through workshops which will cover the technical and administrative skills needed to set up, operate, and administer an IXP.</p>

<p>Phase II focuses on supporting establishment of Regional IXP and Regional Internet Carrier through provisioning Capacity building workshops on best practice and benefits of setting up RIXP/IC and providing technical assistance.</p>

<p>The AXIS Project is a flagship project of the African Regional Action Plan on Knowledge Economy (ARAPKE) endorsed by the African Union Executive Council.</p>

<p>The project will establish a second transmission interconnector between South Africa and Zimbabwe, enhancing the wheeling capacity of the Central Transmission Corridor by 1500 MW. The Zimbabwean section stretches from the South African border to Plumtree in the Matabeleland region of&Acirc; Zimbabwe, close to the border with Botswana.</p>
<p>The second transmissioninterconnector between South Africaand Zimbabwe will increase theZimbabwean wheeling capacity,unlocking bottlenecks for the benefitof the sub-utility companies in theregion. The project will enhance thetransfer capacity from the north tothe south, which will unlockgeneration project development inMozambique, leading to excesscapacity to enable improved trade inthe region.</p>

<p>Establishing the Nyamapanda/ Cuchimano One-Stop Border Post with Cuchimano on the Mozambique side and Nyamapanda on the Zimbabwean side.</p>

<p>This project is the Zimbabwe section of the Beira - Harare railway (rail component of the Beira multimodal corridor), from the Mozambique border at Machipanda, to the capital Harare.</p>

<p>The road runs in a north-easterly direction from Harare to the Nyamanpanda Border Post (between Zimbabwe and Mozambique), covering a total distance of 278km. See this project on an interactive GIS map (with Google Earth satellite imagery and geo-referenced photographs) at www.tmsagis.co.za.</p&gt;

<p>The Harare-Nyamapanda road is part of the Regional Trunk Road Network (RTRN Link NR 25) as well as the Trans-African Highway NR 9 and the rehabilitation of Marehwa-Nyamapanda is a section of this project, which covers a distance of 172km.</p>

<p>The road runs in a southern direction from Harare to Beitbridge Border Post (between Zimbabwe and South Africa), covering a total distance of 571km. The Harare-Beitbridge road is part of the Regional Trunk Road Network (RTRN Link Nr 25). This section covers 184 km from Turn Off to Beitbridge Border Post.</p>

<p>The road runs in a southern direction from Harare to Beitbridge Border Post (between Zimbabwe and South Africa), covering a total distance of 571km. The Harare-Beitbridge road is part of the Regional Trunk Road Network (RTRN Link Nr 25). This section covers 95 km from Masvingo to Turn Off.</p>
