The impact of flyovers in solving traffic congestion

Recently, on Tuesday January 6, 2026, the Zanzibar President inaugurated the first flyover ever, in Zanzibar, and with this, it is hoped that the long-standing congestion and delays at the ever-busy Mwanakwerekwe junction, have found a solution.

A number of flyovers are already operation in the city of Dar es Salaam and several are in the pipeline; all aimed at addressing traffic congestion especially at major junctions.
