Police released traffic rules for Uganda Martyrs Day celebrations happening June 3 at Namugongo. ASP Michael Kananura announced road closures and parking plans for thousands of visitors expected at the event. Several routes will change direction and restrict access starting at midnight on celebration day. Officials want smooth traffic flow and safety for pilgrims traveling to commemorate Christian martyrs. The Jinja-Kampala highway stays open for regular traffic during the festivities.
Different groups must use specific roads and parking areas based on their visitor status. VIPs with red stickers park at Namugongo Boarding Primary School after using designated entrance routes. Foreign pilgrims receive blue stickers and must leave vehicles at Vienna College before walking to ceremonies. Medical workers get green stickers and service providers receive purple ones for special access points. Each group follows separate paths to avoid crowding and confusion.
Police will enforce strict rules about vehicle access and unauthorized parking during the celebration period. Taxi stages around Kyaliwajjala and nearby areas close completely for the event duration. Officers will tow abandoned cars and fine drivers who break traffic regulations. The celebration honors 45 Christians killed for their beliefs between 1885 and 1887. Millions of pilgrims visit Uganda each year to remember these religious martyrs.
