About the Project:
At the very start of January 2015, the Bugiri – Malaba highway was closed to heavy trucks after Ndaiga Bridge along River Malaba developed The New Jinja Bridge (also known as Second Nile Bridge) is built across Nile River connecting the town of Njeru to Jinja, which is part of International Trunk Road (east-west direction) of Kampala (Capital) – Jinja-Malaba (Kenya border) for land-locked Uganda.
