Development wishes to advise the public that it has lifted the suspension of
the licence for operation of all omnibuses belonging to Rimbi Travel and Tours
Pvt Ltd.

of comprehensive measures that have been put in place by the Operator to avert
such incidents in future."

17 January 2023,efforts were made by stakeholders in the passenger transport sector
to resolve the route conflict between Rimbi Travel and Tours Pvt Ltd and
Tashllyt Investments Pvt Ltd trading as Zebra Kiss,"

interest of all concerned stakeholders to cancel all Route Permits for Rimbi
Travel and Tours Pvt on the Harare to Nyamapanda route."
