The Uganda side of the project road (Busega-Mpigi) is located in Central Uganda and forms part of the Northern Corridor. The Rwanda side of the project road (Kagitumba-Kayonza-Rusumo) lies on two of the most important Program for Infrastructure Development in Africa (PIDA) transport corridors, the Northern and Central Corridors. The road is located in the eastern part of Rwanda and is a regional priority road connecting Rwanda with Uganda and Tanzania. The project roads are vital missing links, which support the regional integration objectives of partner states of East Africa Community (EAC) and Great Lakes Region. This is an important project that will contribute to socio-economic development, poverty reduction and regional integration between Uganda, Rwanda and Tanzania. The overall project cost for the two countries is estimated as UA 267.25 million. The Uganda project cost is UA 136.13 million and is to be financed by African Development Bank (ADB) and African Development Fund (ADF) loans and Government of Uganda (GOU) counterpart funding. The project involves the construction of a four-lane express highway (23.7km). The Rwanda project cost estimate is UA 131.1 million to be financed by African Development Fund (ADF) and Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA) loans, European Union (EU) grant and Government of Rwanda (GOR) counterpart contribution. It comprises the rehabilitation of 208 km. In both countries, the project also includes (i) consultancy services for the supervision of the civil works and technical audits. (ii) pipeline projects; training and support for capacity building for cross-border women traders and traders in Busega Market; (iii) a study to finalize the Road Sector Development Program 3 in Uganda; (iv) two cross-border markets at Kagitumba and Rusumo and (v) Technical Assistance for Rwanda Transport Development Agency (RTDA) and capacity building and support to the Transport Sector Working Group (TSWG) secretariat. The construction period of the roads is 2 ½ years. Project Beneficiaries: The direct beneficiaries of the project outputs are traders and transporters using the Northern Corridor via Mirama Hills/Kagitumba and the Central Corridor, via Rusumo and 2.14 million people living within the Busega-Mpigi and Kagitumba-Kayonza-Rusumo areas. The outcomes of the project are reduction in transport costs; increased economic empowerment of women and improved performance of the transport sector institutions. The project will contribute to poverty reduction by improving household incomes and well-being through increased access to markets and social services. Additional benefits will emanate from jobs created during construction, sub-contracts for supply of goods and services and roadside socio-economic activities.

  • Piloting of a Mobile Fecal Sludge Transfer Tank in Five Divisions of Kampala Martin Mawejje May, 2018
    Piloting of a Mobile Fecal Sludge Transfer Tank in Five Divisions of Kampala Martin Mawejje May, 2018 Photograph 1: Transfer tank in a slum within Makindye Division, Kampala Background Water For People in 2013 partnered with GIZ to increase access to sanitation coverage through promotion of sustainable sanitation technologies and scaling up the pit emptying business in three parishes: Bwaise I, Bwaise II and Nateete. Among the achievements of this engagement was the recruitment of six entrepreneurs, of which five are still active to-date, and development of business plans for the entrepreneurs. The entrepreneurs could empty over 400 pit latrines by the end of the project period. One of the challenges to the gulper entrepreneurs and clients during the 2013 project was the high costs of gulping. The business model implemented was deemed to be more expensive for some communities, particularly due to transportation costs that are factored into the cost per trip made to dumping site, and thus borne by the client. The project recommended the need to have a system that will ensure affordable collection costs incurred by the client. A pilot test of a small fixed transfer tank system in the fecal sludge management (FSM) chain (Figure 1) which would allow transport cost savings for manual pit latrine emptying businesses was initiated. However, the project failed due to land issues that are common in Kampala. Some land owners were not authentic. In other areas, the development plans would not allow permanent transfer tanks, while hiring private land or buying is not only expensive but unsustainable. It is with this background that an idea of mobile sludge transfer tanks was conceived.

Yoweri Kaguta Museveni President of the Republic of Uganda At The Annual Budget Conference - Financial Year 2016/17 For Ministers, Ministers of State, Head of Public Agencies and Representatives of Local Governments November11, 2015 - UICC Serena 1 H.E. Vice President Edward Ssekandi, Prime Minister, Rt. Hon. Ruhakana Rugunda, I was informed that there is a Budgeting Conference going on in Kampala. My campaign schedule does not permit me to attend that conference. I will, instead, put my views on paper regarding the next cycle of budgeting. As you know, I always emphasize prioritization in budgeting. Since 2006, when the Statistics House Conference by the Cabinet and the NRM Caucus agreed on prioritization, you have seen the impact. Using the Uganda Government money, since 2006, we have either partially or wholly funded the reconstruction, rehabilitation of the following roads: Matugga-Semuto-Kapeeka (41kms); Gayaza-Zirobwe (30km); Kabale-Kisoro-Bunagana/Kyanika (101 km); Fort Portal- Bundibugyo-Lamia (103km); Busega-Mityana (57km); Kampala –Kalerwe (1.5km); Kalerwe-Gayaza (13km); Bugiri- Malaba/Busia (82km); Kampala-Masaka-Mbarara (416km); Mbarara-Ntungamo-Katuna (124km); Gulu-Atiak (74km); Hoima-Kaiso-Tonya (92km); Jinja-Mukono (52km); Jinja- Kamuli (58km); Kawempe-Kafu (166km); Mbarara-Kikagati- Murongo Bridge (74km); Nyakahita-Kazo-Ibanda-Kamwenge (143km); Tororo-Mbale-Soroti (152km); Vurra-Arua-Koboko- Oraba (92km). 2 We are also, either planning or are in the process of constructing, re-constructing or rehabilitating

  • The Informal Cross Border Trade Qualitative Baseline Study 2008 Uganda Bureau of Statistics
    UGANDA BUREAU OF STATISTICS THE INFORMAL CROSS BORDER TRADE QUALIT ATIVE BASELINE STUDY 2008 February 2009 FOREWORD The Qualitative Module of the Informal Cross Border Trade (ICBT) Survey is the first comprehensive Study of its kind to be conducted in Uganda to bridge information gaps regarding informal trade environment. The study was carried out at Busia, Mirama Hills, Mpondwe and Mutukula border posts. The ICBT Qualitative study collected information on informal trade environment and the constraints traders’ experience in order to guide policy formulation, planning and decision making in the informal cross border sub-sector. The study focused specifically on gender roles in ICBT, access to financial services, marketing information, food security, and tariff and non-tariff barriers to trade among others. This study was conducted alongside the ICBT Quantitative Module that collected information on the nature of products transacted, their volumes and value, and, the direction of trade. Notwithstanding the significant contribution informal cross border trade has made to the welfare of the people of the East African region (in terms of employment creation, economic empowerment of women, food security, regional and social integration), there are no appropriate policies designed to guide players in the informal trade sector. The information gathered, therefore, will provide an insight into the challenges informal traders face in their day to day business and will guide policy and decision makers to enact appropriate policies to harness the potential benefits of informal cross border trade. The Bureau is grateful to the Integrated Framework (IF) through TRACE Project of the Ministry of Tourism, Trade and Industry for the financial contribution that facilitated the study.
