Chief Town Planner, Charles Kyamanya City engineer and Surveyor Abraham Byandala Wakiso district chairman Eng. Ian Kyeyune KCC engineer, how come potholes abound in Kampala? http://www.newvision.co.ug/detail.php?mainNewsCategoryId=&newsCategoryId=13&newsId=400872 SIR� I refer David Bizimana�s letter, �Many potholes in Kampala�, in your edition last Wednesday, lamenting about Kampala�s potholes. This is what I draw from his remarks: l Either the town/city engineer�s team is so incompetent that it cannot design and build sturdy, long-lasting roads. l The funds meant for maintaining the roads are embezzled by some officials. l The town/city engineer no longer drives in Kampala roads. So he does not know their state or he is too old to man such an office. So new and younger blood is needed. How do the concerned authorities feel when the roads in the city stay in the same ram-shackle condition for years? I suggest that a term of office in the city council lasts 12 months. This way, people will give visible deliveries for their contracts to get renewed. Innocent Mwirima Sydney, Australia Rains cut off Kampala suburbs BRAVE? A cyclist rides through a flood on Nansana-Nabweru road at lubigi on Hoima road on Tuesday By Chris Kiwawulo A five-hour traffic jam in Kampala yesterday added to the misery caused by the flooding of the Bwaise-Lubigi river that had earlier displaced hundreds of residents. Heavy rains on Monday and Wednesday evening caused flooding that blocked both the Kampala-Hoima and Gayaza-Bwaise roads. The water got to half the height of a saloon car. Bodaboda cyclists took advantage of the jams on the Bombo and to Kawaala roads to charge up to sh2,000 for trips to the city and for up to sh3,000, energetic youths rolled their trousers knee-high to push vehicles, whose engines had stalled in the flood water. The blockage on the Kampala-Hoima Road occurred at Nansana, about six miles from the city centre, forcing traffic to divert to Bwaise through Kawaala. In Kawempe, the blockage was at Kalerwe and motorists could not cross from Bwaise to Gayaza road. Wakiso district chairman Eng. Ian Kyeyune said he would work with Kampala City Council (KCC) to solve the problem. He said, �I talked to KCC, specifically Kawempe division and we have a programme to counter flooding of the river.� �We want inter-regional planning because KCC has road project funds,� Kyeyune said. He attributed the flooding to silting of the river and yesterday wrote to the Minister for Works, Transport and Communication, John Nasasira, pressing for action. �Murram roads cause silting and tarmacking stopped at Kawaala junction that separates Wakiso from Kampala,� Kyeyune said. But Kawempe chairman Nasser Takuba said whenever he contacted Wakiso about cleaning the river, the district did not respond. �It is good the chairman is willing to work on the problem with us. But i have not received any official communication about the issue,� Takuba said. The floods that on Monday displaced hundreds of resident, forced Bwaise National Water and Sewerage Corporation zonal offices to shift to a nearby building. At Happy Hours Nursery school, lessons were suspended after water filled the classrooms.
