CHANNEL Street has been closed due to major repairs.

“This exercise has been overdue because almost all the vehicles going to the Old Taxi Park pass here. Cars have been dented while struggling to fit in the narrow space of the road which had fewer pot holes compared to the rest.

“Where have these people been while we were being forced to fight for the narrow way through here? It is not new,” taxi driver Ssalongo Kiberu said on Monday.

KCC engineers are in charge of covering the potholes, which are found on almost all the city’s roads.

Accidents have been highlighted continuously in the media.

Kampala city’s traffic flow has been dogged by jams especially in the mornings and evenings.

Potholes also contribute to slowing down the traffic.

Undisciplined drivers who squeeze past queues also make the situation worse.
