JICA dispatched the Study team, headed by Mr. Hiroki SHINKAI of Nippon Koei. Co., Ltd. and organized by Nippon Koei Co., Ltd. and Eight-Japan Engineering Consultants Inc., to Uganda three times from November 2009 to August 2010. The Study Team had a series of discussions with the officials concerned of the Ministry of Works and Transport (MoWT) and other Steering Committee members and carried out field surveys on related studies at the study area. After returning to Japan, the Study team conducted further studies and completed this final report. I hope that this report will be contributed to the promotion of the project and to the enhancement of friendly relations between two countries. Finally, I wish to express my sincere appreciation to the officials of the Government of Uganda, especially the counterpart agency of the Ministry of Works and Transport for their close cooperation extended to the Study.
