New bridge linking Botswana and Zambia ’will lower the cost of doing business’

Kazungula, Zambia - A road and rail bridge linking Botswana and Zambia was inaugurated on Monday, marking the completion of a multi-million-dollar project aimed at easing congestion at border crossings throughout the southern African region.
