KARIBA TO GET BIGGER AIRPORT

Kariba might be getting a bigger airport soon - and the Chinese might be funding the project.

China is currently funding the $150 million upgrade of the Victoria Falls International Airport. A new site has been identified in the resort town of Kariba, away from the existing airport, where a much bigger facility is to be built.

The existing Kariba Airport has limitations owing to its size and equipment, which needs upgrading. As a busy tourist destination the upgrade is long overdue.

Besides the Victoria Falls Airport, the Civil Aviation Authority of Zimbabwe (CAAZ) is upgrading Joshua Mqabuko International Airport in Bulawayo, Harare International Airport and Buffalo Range Airport in Chiredzi.
