THE programme co-ordinator of the Nakivubo Channel Rehabilitation Project, Tamale Kiggundu, has said flooding will not occur again at the Clock Tower in Kampala.
“We have placed a box culvert which can accommodate large volumes of water at the spot. Flooding was rampant in this place because the culvert that was being used was very small and the water could not go through easily,†he said.
He told The New Vision recently that the water moving through the culvert had increased because the channel had been widened all the way from Kisekka Market, Old Kampala and Aghakhan.
Tamale said it would be opened by the end of this month.
