Infrastructure timelines are totally cooked because nobody paid the bills or moved pipes, causing Gen Edward Katumba Wamala to admit the Matugga Semuto Kapeeka Road project will likely miss its target date. The Works Minister inspected the site on Monday, discovering progress stalled thanks to utility relocation headaches and cash flow issues.
This sixty-three-kilometer stretch initially launched back in 2011 as a tech pilot but got absolutely wrecked from heavy trucks accessing the Kapeeka Industrial Park. Attempts to fix the route started late in 2023, yet massive traffic volumes continue grinding the surface down faster than crews can pave.
Katumba claims he actually digs the construction quality despite multiple setbacks hurting the workflow. The state considers extending the schedule since irregular payouts and immovable water lines keep preventing the contractor from hitting necessary milestones.
Bureaucrats argue this corridor remains vital for supporting factories and cutting transport costs in central Uganda. Getting this done requires resolving the financial bottlenecks that currently leave the whole operation stuck in first gear.
