Kampala City Council Authority (KCCA) is considering a proposal to ban boda- boda (motor bikes) cyclists in Kampala city.
The central business district would be a no-go area for boda-bodas if the proposal is approved. The move is aimed at decongesting the city; reduce accidents as well as restoring order in the city.
Sources reveal that boda- boda cyclistswill not be allowed to go beyond Wandegeya, Makerere Hill Road to LDC, Gaddafi Road, Namirembe Road to Kafumbe Mukasa Road, Clock Tower, Queens’ Way to Nsambya, Mukwano Road to Kitgum traffic lights on Jinja Road, and Yusuf Lule up to Mulago round-about and back to Wandegeya.
Merely two years ago city authorities wanted to ban the boda-bodas but the Police halted the decision arguing that it was made hurriedly and without consultations.
