Lawful construction practices in :

Construction regulations state that any building constructed without a permit and in violation of the City Master Plan may be demolished once identified, even if construction has already been completed.

▶️ Such buildings are constructed without the inspections required to confirm that they meet safety and quality standards.
▶️ They are often built hastily, which can compromise their structural integrity.
▶️ As a result, they may pose serious safety risks and can cause accidents at any time.

📌 Building without a permit is a loss for both the property owner and the country as a whole.

Let us put an end to illegal construction and build responsibly.

As the world celebrates today, take a look back at the highlights from last Friday’s public servants’ sports activities at Nyandungu Eco-Park, where City of Kigali officials, public servants, and other participants came together to promote cycling as a healthy, sustainable, and environmentally friendly mode of transport.

The event also served as an opportunity to celebrate the prestigious UCI Bike City Label awarded to the City of Kigali in recognition of its commitment to cycling development and the successful hosting of the 2025 UCI Road World Championships.

As part of its efforts to promote active mobility and healthy lifestyles, the City of Kigali is also rehabilitating five wetlands that will feature more than 60 kilometres of pedestrian walkways and cycling lanes, creating additional spaces for recreation, exercise, and eco-friendly transport.

In , we have seen firsthand the value of restoring and protecting our wetlands.

Building on the success of Nyandungu Eco-Park, the rehabilitation of five additional wetlands, carried out in partnership with REMA, is now over 90% complete.

These beautiful green spaces feature artificial lakes, pedestrian walkways, cycling lanes, indigenous trees that provide shade and fresh air, and habitats for a variety of bird species whose songs bring life to the wetlands.

As these projects near completion, they will offer even more opportunities for residents and visitors to connect with nature, relax, exercise, and enjoy the beauty of Kigali’s natural environment.

Good morning!

Let us begin the week by learning about compliant construction practices in .

Did you know that when you purchase a plot of land, any construction permit previously issued to the former owner automatically becomes invalid?

A construction permit is not transferred together with the plot. Once you purchase the land, you must first complete the land transfer process and obtain the land title in your own name.

After receiving the land title under your name, you are required to apply for a new construction permit issued in your name before starting any construction works.
