Telecel is lighting up the Victoria Falls bridge between Zimbabwe and Zambia as part of its contribution to the United Nations World Tourism Organisation General Assembly being hosted by the two countries next week.

The bridge illumination, at a cost of about $100 000, has provision for up to 1.8 million colour options.

Telecel's sponsorship covers illumination for 75 000 hours, which means the bridge illumination will continue for 15 years.

The project, which is the first of its kind, is being worked on through several partners, most notably SSLI and Philips Electronics.

Telecel will also ensure that its voice and data services are optimised for visitors to the Victoria Falls.

A new Telecel office has been opened in Victoria Falls, which will be officially commissioned before the official UNWTO General Assembly programme starts.
