Zambia’s leading road safety NGO, the Zambia Road Safety Trust (ZRST), says safety should be our top priority and if need be, the government should demolish the Alick Nkhata bridge to save lives.
The Engineering Institution of Zambia (EIZ) has called for the total demolition of the Alick Nkhata Bridge in Lusaka. EIZ Registrar and Chief Executive officer Linus Chanda says following a review undertaken of the structure by the institute, it was concluded that the space, where the flyover bridge is being constructed, is not sufficient to meet a well-designed flyover bridge.
ZRST is concerned about a very remote possibility that Alick Nkhata Flyover Bridge can be a catastrophe following EIA warning.
