NRZ temporary suspension of Urban Commuter Train Service

Post by John Ashworth »

NRZ suspends train commuters stating ZUPCO owes the operator huge debts. Minibus associations mushroom
The National Railways of Zimbabwe (NRZ) would like to advise the commuting public of a temporary suspension of the Urban Commuter Train Service with effect from Monday 28th November 2022. The service was launched in partnership with ZUPCO last year to ease congestion in Bulawayo and Harare. The suspension was occasioned by an unsustainable operating environment arising from huge debts owed to NRZ by ZUPCO. NRZ was therefore left with no option but to suspend commuter trains from 28 November due to capacity challenges. Normal services will resume once ZUPCO fulfill its obligations as set in the agreement. Any inconvenience caused to our valued customers is sincerely regretted.
