From :Harare Commuter Omnibus Transporters Association "HACOTA"
Dear Members
Following on our meeting today at Cleveland Dam in Harare, we have evaluated the environment and find it not conducive for our drivers and conductors to work on Wednesday 31 August 2016. We therefore advise all commuters to park their vehicles on this day. Please note insurance companies are refusing to pay for damages incurred during demonstrations or politically motivated violence.
Normal services will resume on Thursday 1st September.
