Zambia Railways completes restoration works on Chipata – Mchinji railway line

The Zambia Railways Limited (ZRL) says restoration works on the Chipata – Mchinji Railway Line on the Zambian side have been completed.
Last month, the Zambia Railways Limited temporary closed the Chipata-Mchinji Railway Line due to damage caused by heavy rains on both the Zambian and Malawian sides.
The company said initial reports indicated that there were serious wash-aways on the Chipata -Mchinji line which also affected movement of trains on the Nacala Corridor in general.
ZRL Acting Public Relations Manager Sombe Ng’onga tells Money FM News that restoration works on CEAR Railway Line in Malawi are still in progress.
Mrs. Ng’onga says train movements between Chipata and the Port of Nacala will only be operationalized by mid-January 2019 when works are expected to be completed.
She says the company appreciates the patience exhibited by its business clients and members of the general public during the restoration period.
The Zambia Railways Limited operates the Chipata- Mchinji Railway Line on a stretch of 24 kilometers from Chipata City in Eastern Province connecting with CEAR Railways in Malawi and CDN Railways of Mozambique up to Nacala Port.
