BULAWAYO City Council is yet to make a decision on a proposal by vehicle parking management company, Tendy Tree Investment (TTI), to set up bitumen plant in the city,
TTI director, Lizwe Mabuza, said the company was ready to kick-start the project once the local authority gives a go-ahead.
“We put in our proposal with the council, it was discussed...it is on the council minutes,” Mabuza said in an interview.
“We are still waiting for the council’s approval so that we can begin working on the project.”
No response could be obtained from the local authority as of Friday on the matter.
Mabuza recently proposed to fund a bitumen plant that would employ Bulawayo residents and improve the city’s roads in the central business district and residential areas.
Mabuza is a realtor with properties in South Africa and abroad. He is also into mining in Zimbabwe.
The businessman is also into agriculture and security with more than 2 000 security guards under his stewardship.
