MPWAPWA residents
may now have a reason to smile after the government's decision to start
the implementation of a project for the construction of a road that
connects the district to Dodoma, Iringa and Morogoro begins.
The road that would
be upgraded to tarmac level follows a pledge by President John
Magufuli, who once said he wants to see Mpwapwa residents improving
their income through the road presence.
Speaking during a
two- day working tour Dodoma Regional Commissioner (RC), Dr Binilith
Mahenge, Mpwapwa District Commissioner, Jabir Shekimweri said that the
promise made by Dr Magufuli had started paying off.
The RC was on his
working tour to inspect different community development projects,
including the 5km road in the centre of Mpwapwa promised by Dr Magufuli
and that already, Tanzania Rural and Urban Road Agency (TARURA) has
completed its 3km stretch.
However, he noted
that the government has equally implemented the promise to construct the
Mpwapwa-Kongwa road to tarmac, whose 2km out of 5 stretch has already
been constructed by the Tanzania Roads Agency (TANROADS) at 4.9bn/-
According to the
DC, also, Mpwapwa residents would equally enjoy travelling on the
75-kilometre Mpwapwa-Kibakwe road after the completion of a feasibility
study, besides the Iringa and Dodoma regions.
On the projects,
Mpwapwa District TARURA Manager, said 3 kms of the roads that had been
promised by Dr Magufuli had been completed and that the project was
still active.
Reached for a
comment, Mpwapwa Districts TANROADS Manager, Salome Kabunda said already
2 kms out of 5 of the Mpwapwa- Kongwa road had been completed at
4.9bn/-
