GWERU City Council (GCC) has received two state- of -the art earth moving machines worth over $250 000 which are part of equipment worth $1,2 million council has bought for road maintenance.

On Monday, GCC received a backhoe truck valued at $92 895 after receiving a grader valued at $158 000 last week.

A local company Rubitech was awarded a tender to supply the equipment which includes a grader, bulldozer, backhoe and an excavator last year, but there has been a delay in delivering the machinery.

Gweru Town Clerk Ms Elizabeth Gwatipedza said all the equipment was supposed to have been delivered last year, but so far they have received the grader and backhoe truck.

She said the delay in delivering the equipment had resulted in council failing to maintain and rehabilitate its road network.
