However, this deadline was not met, and the completion date has been postponed to a later time, which will be communicated.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The estimated road is aimed at reducing traffic jams, particularly around Najjeera\u2014Buwaate Spur, a 5 km stretch that has already seen significant progress with the laying of tarmac,&#8221; UNRA stated.<\/p>\n<p>The road will feature well-demarcated driving lanes, allowing for two-way traffic from Kyaliwajjara to Kira and a single driving lane from Kira via Kasangati up to Matugga. To prevent accidents, pedestrian walkways and cycling lanes will be established on both sides of the road, and a green belt will be maintained in the road reserve to accommodate future expansion.<\/p>\n<p>UNRA continues to request that all drivers using the route stay calm, as construction is still ongoing.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Estimated road is aimed to reduce traffic jam as in one of the key points<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":7442,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[1328,1329,1330,1331,1327,1326],"class_list":["post-7441","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-general","tag-kasangati","tag-kira","tag-kyaliwajjara","tag-matugga","tag-roads","tag-unra"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v22.5 -
