An important highway project is being carried out in China. The project calls for the construction of the second and third phase of the G235 Youxi Xicheng-Xinyang highway.

Work is already being carried out on the first phase of the highway. This includes preparatory works for the new Tengban Bridge as well as for the main road alignment.

The project is costing an estimated US$171.5 million and the highway will be around 40km long. Of note is that the road is being constructed of concrete.

    In Uganda planning is underway for the upgrade of the Kampala-Jinja route. Preparations are being made for a new tolled highway connecting with capital Kampala. The upgrade will see the route being widened with four lanes for much of the length, six lanes on the approach to Kampala and up to eight lanes where vehicle densities will be heaviest to carry the capital’s traffic. The construction work is expected to cost some US$74 million and the new link will connect with the existing Kampala-Entebbe highway.
