ENABLING SUSTAINABLE MOBILITY IN EAST AFRICA; BUILDING SUCCESSFUL PPP FOR THE ROAD SUB-SECTOR IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES.

ABSTRACTMobilization of private sector investment and expertise in support of infrastructure development, operation and maintenance is of paramount importance. The private sector is seen to offer exciting alternatives and opportunities. By entering into PPPs, delivery of public service infrastructure may be enhanced by accessing the private sector’s financial, managerial, professional and technical expertise (N.T. Rao 2003). Private sector resources can enhance the necessary maintenance and…See More

KAMPALA CITY SHOULD URGENTLY BE ZONED

By Mutabazi Sam StewartKampala is fast becoming a better city thanks to the new administration led by Ms. Jeniffer Musisi Ssemakula its Executive Director.

LUZIRA KILLING WAS ABSURD BUT KCCA MUST NOT RELENT

By Mutabazi Sam StewartThe recent incident in Luzira near Kampala where one person was short dead and others injured during an eviction exercise spearheaded by KCCA Director of planning Mr. George Agaba is regrettable. Agaba made an otherwise what should have been a good cause to become ugly and resented by the public. As a consequence, many people have expressed concern and apprehension at the action which is likely to compromise the continuous implementation of the city improvement by the…See More

WHY KAMPALA ROADS ARE FALLING APART

By Mutabazi Sam Stewart Uganda’s roads especially those in Kampala are falling apart. The rains have made the bad situation worse. Potholes which were small have instantly become wide and deep. Some roads have what can be termed as galleys because big chunks of road surfaces have been washed off creating big water logged ponds in the middle of the roads. Traffic jams have increased especially during peak hours because vehicles have to slow down as the approach such spots. Kampala Capital City…See More

UNRA’S THREE YEAR JOURNEY CARRYING UGANDA’S ROAD BURDEN

By Mutabazi Sam Stewart UNRA was established by an Act of Parliament as an autonomous entity three years ago with a mandate of managing the national road network on behalf of the government. UNRA’s mandate is not an easy task. The public expects quite a lot from the institution irrespective of the constraints it may face. UNRA is a young institution that faces an enormous assignment of developing and maintaining our roads in a better condition. It inherited a poor road network from the Ministry…See More

Kampala was neglected

By Joseph Kasibante WE will neglect our cities at our own peril for in neglecting them we neglect the nation”- John F Kennedy said while addressing Congress on January 30, 1962. Indeed all the successive Uganda Governments including NRM neglected Kampala City at our peril and of that of the future. Just think of time, money and technologies the taxpayers will pay to correct the carelessness of the poor managers? Most of the electorates in Kampala City and the leaders they bring in are either…See More

By Mutabazi Sam StewartExecutive Director, Uganda Road Sector Support Initiative (URSSI)In a world when globalization and international interaction is at its peak, travelers and globe trotters keep enduring situations that are not very friendly.

Uganda' roads still poor

Uganda’s urban development and expansion has consistently been growing at a steadfast rate but without a corresponding rate of growth of roads. As a result, the sprawling urbanization is not easily discernable because of incoherent road infrastructure development. A first time visitor to Kampala may think that Uganda has the worst road infrastructure in both urban and rural areas. But to the contrary, poor roads in Uganda are mainly in urban areas. Rural roads especially those categorized as…See More

Roads are Important Gov't should focus on them

Apart from health and education, the next important sector any country should invest the largest chunk of her resources is that of transport. But even within the transport sector government should put more resources in roads because they are the most critical in terms of internal and cross boarder trade and human movement. In contributing to community’s broad economic, social and environmental goals, the principal role of the road system is to facilitate interaction between people and the…See More
