Soon after privatisation, MEL constructed a 32 km long Maamba- Masuku road and foot bridges in Maamba town. A 28 km long road from Maamba to Kariba Lake under construction and a water reticulation system for the benefit of the local communities were also made by MEL.

Since then, MEL is continuously engaged in developing, maintaining and augmenting infrastructure. The flagship infrastructure development project fully funded and executed by the company was the reconstruction of Maamba Township roads completed in Sep 2020. Apart from that, MEL is helping the community by building foot bridges and dams on request from different segments of the community, especially in remote areas.
