Maputo-Katembe Bridge: FME says damage is serious

Ponte Maputo-Katembe: FME diz que danos são graves

Contrary to what Rede Viária de Moçambique said about the crack in the Maputo/KaTembe bridge viaduct, the Mozambican Federation of Contractors has come out to say that the problem is serious.

Quoted by the newspaper The country, the President of the Mozambican Federation of Contractors, Bento Machaila, questions the quality of the work because, according to him, it is quite possible that the ground was not properly prepared at the start of the project to receive the structure.

Bento Machaila thus contradicts Rede Viária de Moçambique, which a few days ago dismissed the problem, saying that the crack in the ramp leading to the Maputo Katembe Bridge was the result of a combination of climatic effects.

Machaila also criticized the management and maintenance of the roads concessioned to Revimo.
