UNRA to demolish structures obstructing rehabilitation of Nakalama- Tirinyi- Mbale road project

The Uganda National Roads Authority (UNRA) will carry out demolitions along the Nakalama- Tirinyi- Mbale road next week on Wednesday.

According to a statement from the Authority, the exercise will target all encroachers along the road mostly in areas of Nakalama, Busembatya and Bugwere.

“Uganda National Roads Authority (UNRA) informs the general public that there will be an exercise to clear the Right of Way/Road Reserve along the Nakalama-Tirinyi-Mbale Road Project commencing on the 18th September 2019,” the statement reads in part.

“The exercise will target all the encroachers along the road. Notable among the areas to be affected include but are not limited to Nakalama Junction, Busembatia Town Council, and Bugwere Road Market among others.”

The road is currently undergoing rehabilitation and a number of road reserve encroachers have become obstacles to project progress.

The road under construction by Dott Services Ltd is about 99.23Kms with a contract duration of 25 months.
