Overview

This road is an important transport corridor connecting Kiboga District, Mubende District, and Mityana District. The section between Bukuya and Kiboga is common to this road and to Myanzi–Kassanda–Bukuya–Kiboga Road. From Bukuya, the former lies nearly entirely in Mityana District, while the latter lies in Mubende District. Flooding is a challenge on these roads.[5] The Mityana–Bukuya–Kiboga Road is a murram-surfaced road, in varying stages of disrepair, especially the section between Bulera and Kyamusisi.[6]
