Uganda National Roads Authority

Uganda National Roads Authority The Uganda National Roads Authority (UNRA) was established by an Act of Parliament; The Uganda National Authority Act, No. 15 of 2006.

UNRA became operational on 1st July 2008. The mandate of UNRA is to develop and maintain the national roads network, advise Government on general roads policy and contribute to addressing of transport concerns, among others. Brief background

UNRA is one of the products of Road Sector Reforms. In 1996, the Government of
Uganda prepared the 10-Year Road Sector Development Programme (RSDP). The
Prog

ramme was reviewed and updated in 2002 making it a 10 Year rolling Road Sector Development Programme Phase 2 (RSDP2). One of the objectives of the RSDP was establishing a robust administration for effective and efficient management of the national roads network. To achieve this objective, Government committed itself to reform national roads management through the establishment of an autonomous performance-based Road Authority to handle road administration and ex*****on function and restructuring the Ministry of Works and Transportation (MoWT) to focus on policy, setting standards, regulation, monitoring and evaluation functions.

🎉 Exciting Updates on Lake Kyoga!⛴️

Thrilled to announce that after the successful completion of all physical works, MV BKK 1&2 have successfully completed sea trials! ✅

🌊Sea trails are a vessel’s ultimate test on open waters after months of construction! It’s where the ferry proves its strength, stability and readiness to conquer the waves!

On commissioning, these magnificent vessels will transform water connectivity on Lake Kyoga across the different routes;

⛴️ MV BKK 1— Connecting Bukungu to Kagwara, serving the vibrant communities of Serere and Soroti.

⛴️ MV BKK 2— Linking Bukungu to Akampala, connecting to Kaberamaido.

Together, these ferries will create seamless connections across over 8 districts in the Eastern region, bridging Busoga to Teso, Kaberamaido, and the Lango sub-region.

The Government of Uganda through UNRA partnered with M/S Songoro Marine Transport Limited (SMT) to bring this vision to life!

It's been rewarding to see significant progress of works on the different projects connecting Communities and facilitating Growth in other sectors of the economy.

⛴️ : Bukungu—Kaberamaido—Kagwara (BKK) ferries are equipped with low-emission engines, which help reduce potential environmental impact on Lake Kyoga.

The vessels adhere to international safety and environmental standards, ensuring that as we improve connectivity, we're safeguarding the ecosystem that supports us.

On completion, expected before the end of this year, the ferries will revitalize and connect the areas of Bukungu, Kaberamaido, and Kagwara (Serere District) in Eastern Uganda, turning them into thriving economic hubs. We can't wait...!
