The Chirundu One-Stop Border Post between Zimbabwe and northern neighbours, Zambia now operates 24 hours a day as the two southern African nations seek to enhance intra-Africa trade.
Zimbabwe and Zambia are also responding to the surge in volumes of feeder traffic from Beitbridge and Forbes border posts as well as the traffic passing through the two countries.
The border had been opening between 6am and 10pm before a third shift went active for continuous operation.
The Chirundu Border Post becomes the second after Beitbridge to offer a 24-hour service.
The advantage of the one-stop border is that traffic going into Zimbabwe will be cleared on the Zimbabwean side of the border and vice versa, which will shorten waiting time.
This is the main entry point into Zambia and has two terminals, the passenger and commercial terminals.
