Zimbabwe - Urgent Water Supply and Sanitation Rehabilitation Project - Phase 2

The proposed Project is a continuation of the Phase 1 UWSSRP. While Phase 1 focuses more on restoring water and wastewater treatment capacity, phase 2 complements Phase 1 by giving greater emphasis on improving both the water and sewerage network performance, strengthening commercial aspects and enhancing service delivery efficiency. The project is part of the Government priority investment area under the MTP 2011-2015. It is to be implemented as a stand-alone project in two stages. The first stage of the Project will comprise of preparation of technical and tender document for all four towns and implementation of activities for Harare. The second stage will be the implementation of the activities for Chitungwiza, Ruwa and Redcliff. The staging was necessitated to cater for the ongoing resource mobilization which will continue after the approval of the project. It will be implemented over a period of 36 months with a total cost estimated at USD 35.99 (UA 24.01) million.
