Overview

This road is an important transport corridor between Kiboga District and Mubende District.^[6] The road is prone to flooding, and when it does, it disrupts travel between the two districts and between those two and Mityana District.^[6][7][8]

Upgrading to bitumen

The gravel-surfaced road is under the purview of Uganda National Roads Authority.^[6] During his 2016 presidential electoral campaigns, President Yoweri Museveni made a pledge to upgrade this road to class II bitumen standard.^[9]
