Lusaka City Council has disclosed that the Council Committee will be concluding their meetings on the bidders for the construction of a shelter at the city’s Kulima Tower bus station.
The local authority has since allocated K3 billion for the construction of the structure.
Council Assistant Public Relations Manager Mulunda Habeenzu said that the Council received eight applications from the bidders out of which seven are Lusaka based and one from the Copperbelt Province.
Mr. Habeenzu said that the Council Committee travelled to the Copperbelt Province and met with the bidder who is based in that Province adding that a report on the matter was likely to be issued this week.
He told ZANIS in Lusaka today that after awarding the contract to the right bidder, signing of the contract would be conducted and construction would follow.
Mr. Habeenzu stated that according to the Council’s earlier programme, the construction would take about five months.
Operators and Commuters at Kulima tower bus station have continuously complained of lack of a shelter.

Good development. I think 3 Billlion ($600,000) is too much money for a shelter. It better be a good one and have sanitation facilities including upper level deck.
Why did the Committee travel to the Copperbelt to meet a bidder and not the other way round, the bidder going to Lusaka.
Kulima Tower made me leave the country. I couldn’t take it anymore!
Congratulation to the PF council for putting money to some use and building a shelter for your home base. And while you are at it work on the vocabulary of your Kulima Tower graduates. All the know is insults day in day out
