 Traffic Delays Expected at Katonga Bridge as Road Works Resume

Asphalt-laying works begin at Katonga Bridge on Kampala-Masaka Highway.

The Ministry of Works and Transport has started three-day road works at Katonga Bridge, warning motorists of delays and offering alternative routes.

The Ministry of Works and Transport has commenced asphalt-laying works at the Katonga Bridge section on the Kampala-Masaka Highway. The works, which resume today, are scheduled to continue for three days.

Traffic will be restricted to a half-width carriageway, reducing road space and causing possible delays. Motorists are advised to plan their journeys, follow instructions from traffic police and site marshals, and avoid dangerous overtaking that could worsen congestion and compromise safety.

The Ministry has instructed the contractor to ensure proper traffic control throughout the works. Drivers may use the Mpigi-Kanoni-Gomba-Ssembabule road as an alternative route to avoid delays.
