Zimbabwe & Zambia Ban Heavy Traffic on 120-Year-Old Victoria Falls Bridge
Zambia and Zimbabwe have agreed to ban trains and heavy trucks from the Victoria Falls Bridge — a 120-year-old crossing over the Zambezi River that doubles as a major tourist attraction.
Zambian President Hakainde Hichilema announced the decision at the Engineering Institution of Zambia conference in Livingstone.
A new road and rail bridge will be built a few kilometres downstream to handle heavy commercial traffic.
The Victoria Falls Bridge, built in 1905, currently serves as a critical artery for cross-border trade and tourism between the two countries.
The move is designed to preserve the bridge while improving transport efficiency in the region.
