Government has commenced rehabilitation of the transport terminal known as the Old Taxi Park a

On Rehabilitation of the Old Taxi Park, Hon Amongi says, “Government has commenced rehabilitation of the transport terminal known as the Old Taxi Park and has contracted companies (Stirling Civil Engineering Ltd and Kiru General Services Ltd) to commence the works.”
The scope of work will include excavation and disposal of the existing material, installation of underground drainage lines, rock fill, construction of new foundation layers for the carpet and surfacing of the constructed layers with asphalt concrete (tarmac). The new carpet will have markings to delineate areas for parking and for taxi and pedestrian movements. The boundaries of the Park will be retained properly to prevent mud from washing onto the carpet as has been the case. There will be lighting and some waiting sheds for passengers. The park will have designated entry and exit points for both vehicles and pedestrians and will have access control for vehicles to avoid queuing on the surrounding roads and congestion within the Park.
The Park will also have sanitary facilities such as toilets, an administration block and a Police Post.
In case the lockdown ends before the works are completed, KCCA shall provide alternative parking areas for the taxis as was with the construction of the New Taxi Park.
She appeals to the public to bear with them for the short-lived inconvenience the works may cause.
& calls upon all leaders, Taxis and Boda Boda operators and all stakeholders to remain calm as they continue with consultations.
