Uganda’s Minister of Works and Transport has announced a 100-day operation targeting unsafe commuter taxis in the Kampala Metropolitan area. The crackdown will specifically focus on removing dilapidated 14-seater taxis from the roads. Minister Fred Byamukama initiated the campaign to address concerns about the dangerous mechanical condition of many taxis currently in operation. The initiative aims to improve road safety and protect commuters. This action signals a renewed effort to regulate public transport and ensure vehicle standards are met. Authorities plan to intensify vehicle inspections and enforcement throughout the 100-day period. The move comes as concerns grow over the potential for accidents caused by poorly maintained vehicles.
