A Member of Parliament has suggested that Government should force haulage trucks to use the much 'safer' Harare-Bulawayo highway on their way to Beitbridge saying trucks are damaging the Harare- Masvingo road.

The unidentified legislator asked Transport minister Obert Mpofu this afternoon in Parliament.

The session was beamed live on ZTV, but the visuals where not clear.

The MP said haulage trucks are destroying the Beitbridge-Masvingo.

 The expansion of the Harare-Beitbridge Highway has been stalled by a court case involving the contractor

The road has been a "highway to death" due to the increase in the number of accidents on the narrow but busy road.
