Industrial growth straight up murdered this flimsy cabbage truck road. A government minister admitted the Matugga Semuto Kapeeka route was built only for light vegetable transport. Rapid development around Kapeeka's industrial park flooded it with heavy trucks, completely exceeding its design capacity. Officials had to order a full redesign and rehabilitation for the forty-one-kilometer stretch.
A local firm called Abubaker Technical Services won the construction contract. Work faced immediate delays from slow payments and utility relocations, such as water pipes. The minister confirmed owed money has finally been paid to the contractor. These setbacks make the original completion target impossible to reach. Authorities plan to grant extra time to compensate for the earlier payment issues.
