Urban tolling a necessary evil, says Kasukuwere

Local Government minister Saviour Kasukuwere has insisted that urban tollgates are a necessary evil, vowing to go ahead with construction of the plazas, despite fierce resistance by motorists.

This comes as Transport minister Jorum Gumbo has distanced himself from the proposed urban tollgates, saying if they are to be put in place, they are the responsibility of Kasukuwere's ministry.

Kasukuwere admitted that not enough had been done for the public to understand the motives behind urban tolling.
