Efforts to revive business operations within the precincts of Westgate Shopping Mall have received a major boost with the reopening of the busy Mwanzi road, which cuts through Westgate Shopping Mall and Ukay Centre.

The road, which had been sealed off to facilitate forensic investigations, connects Ring Road Parklands and Peponi roads while providing access to the key Ukay and Westgate parking lots.

Speaking when he confirmed the reopening of the road, Nakumatt Holdings Managing Director Atul Shah said the business operators at Ukay Centre had successfully managed to petition for the reopening of the key road to facilitate business recovery.

“The continued closure of the road had contributed to a business slump for traders within the Westgate Shopping mall vicinity but I am glad the opening will now provide a much needed relief,” Shah said.

And added: “ the opening of Mwanzi road this morning, provides Ukay Centre patrons with a convenient entry and exit option alongside ample parking facilities at the three parking lots along Mwanzi road.”

Two months into the Westgate Terrorist attack, most traders are still counting their losses. The traders have however commenced plans to rebuild their businesses following last week’s handover of the Westgate Shopping Mall building back to the property developer from the security agencies.
