KCCA Emergency Repairs Begin on Ggaba Road!! Major Works Near Kabalagala Police Station

Emergency road works have started along Ggaba Road near Kabalagala Police Station after a major failure of an old cross culvert. The damage caused by the broken culvert had created safety concerns for road users, prompting immediate action from the responsible authorities.

The repair works officially began on 9th June 2025 and will last for 28 days. The main task is to completely remove and replace the old and damaged culverts in this section of the road. These culverts are important because they help drain water beneath the road. When they fail, the road becomes weak and can collapse or cause flooding, especially during heavy rains.

This section of Ggaba Road is very busy, connecting several important areas and used by thousands of people every day. The repair works are expected to slow down traffic, and travelers are advised to use alternative routes or follow instructions from traffic officers on-site.

Engineers working on the project say the new culverts will be stronger and built to last longer. The goal is not only to fix the problem but to prevent similar failures in the future. Residents and business owners in the area have welcomed the repair works, saying it’s better to face a few weeks of disruption than risk accidents and road damage later on.

Drivers, riders, and pedestrians are urged to be patient and careful as the work continues. Safety signs and barriers have been put up to guide traffic and prevent accidents.

Once completed, the repaired section of Ggaba Road is expected to be safer, stronger, and better prepared to handle future rain and traffic pressure.
