Gulu highway junction is a death trap

EDITOR—I request the Uganda National Roads Authority (UNRA) to inspect and improve the Matugga-Kiryagonja Road junction.

When one has to branch off at this junction and finds another motorist entering the main road, one tends to stop on the main road to let the other motorist enter the main road.

This puts one at a high risk of being knocked by speeding vehicles on the Gulu highway.

This particular spot is very narrow and requires immediate attention before hundreds of people perish at this death trap.

UNRA engineers will inspect this junction as soon as possible and if necessary it will be re-designed. Our priority is to create a safe road network.
