He said the 10km Rukunyu-Nyabitutsi road would cost sh46m, while Ntonwa-Malere would cost sh45m.
“We are rehabilitating these roads to promote agriculture and trade,†Kahangire said.
He said the residents grew a lot of food crops especially maize, adding that it was important to have good roads to enable traders to go directly to the farmers.
