The Ministry of works and transport has officially opened the newly built Katonga bridge with a call on users to drive carefully and mind about each others lives.

This was disclosed by the Minister of Works and Transport Hon. Fred Byamukama while commisioning the newly built Katonga bridge that was built on tax payers money at the cost of 191 billion shillings.

Construction of the bridge Follows the collapse of the original Katonga Bridge on Kampala – Masaka Highway in May 2023.
The Government of Uganda through the Ministry of Works and Transport embarked on construction of a new bridge which is currently fully reopened to normal traffic.
