LCC RECEIVES 12 APPLICATIONS TO NAME UNNAMED ROADS IN LUSAKA

The Lusaka City Council (LCC) wishes to inform the public that 12 applications proposing names for unnamed roads in Lusaka were received during the first quarter sittings of the Engineering and Infrastructure Development Committee.

The applications were submitted by individuals, former councillors, and organizations in line with LCC’s mandate to regulate street naming. The process aims to improve addressing, enhance service delivery, and strengthen emergency response across the city.

The proposals cover roads in residential areas including New Kasama, Ibex Hill, Ng’ombe, Matero, Garden, Chalala, Makeni, and Hellen Kaunda in Mtendere Ward 34. Proposed names include Saini Road, Poshi Road, Hope and Faith, Dr. Ashton Bunda, Mwamba Kalenga, Kaleya Close, and Vera Chiluba Road.

Some applications target single access roads, such as the unnamed road off Kasama Road separating Manna Shopping Centre and Nando’s Chalala, and the road in Kilimanjaro Zone, Makeni, running parallel to Satwant Road and UCZ Road. Other applications cover 29 roads within Hellen Kaunda, Mtendere Ward 34.

All proposals will undergo technical verification and stakeholder consultation as required by Council procedures. Road naming must reflect Zambia’s history, culture, heritage, and the contribution of outstanding citizens to national development.

Members of the public will be invited to submit comments, objections, or support for any proposed name once the applications are advertised. Submissions can be made to the Town Clerk’s Office within the stipulated period to ensure transparency and community participation in developmental matters.

LCC remains committed to orderly urban development and efficient service delivery through proper road identification. The Council will communicate the final decisions after the approval process is concluded.
