The government and the donors for the construction of the Kampala-Jinja Expressway and Kampala Southern Bypass project are yet to finalize negotiations on the terms.

The project will be developed under the Private Public Partnership arrangement projected to run over 30 years. It will be based on a design, build, finance, operate, and transfer (DBFOT) model which will form the basis of the concession agreement between the government and the successful private sector concessionaire.

The Minister for Works and Transport, General Katumba said the dates for the commencement of works on the projects will be determined after the terms and conditions are agreed on and when the project agreements are signed. By the end of December 2023, the government and the funders of the project had not selected a company to carry out the Kampala-Jinja Expressway.
