Zimbabwe United Passenger Company (Zupco has received a new fleet of buses that will serve urban and rural commuters which will be commissioned this week.
The new buses are expected to complement the current Zupco fleet.
President Mnangagwa will be launching new buses soon.
He had been expecting the buses.
Last week he said, "I think by the Independence Day on the 18th, two days before, on the 16th or 15th, I should be launching new buses which are coming in.
"We saw that during the disturbances, these kombis were taking advantage of the suffering people, raising prices left, right and centre.
"Of course, we then instructed Zupco come in, but we have now decided to bring in new buses to provide both urban and rural transport with regulated prices that are fair and just giving enough remuneration to run the buses," he said.
