Although the busses are now parked opposite Kampala Parents primary School in Kampala they are not expected to start operating on March 01 as it was earlier reported in the media.

The Director of Kampala in charge of planning, Joseph Sentongo says that the Bus P.roject has not been finalized and what is about to be unveiled is a pilot project to establish the efficiency of the bus transport industry. He says that the project may not kick off before the city authorities find a place which is going to serve as a bus park.

Sentongo says that KCCA wants the bus transport system in Uganda to be as modern as it is in United   Kingdom. The buses were supposed to offer transport services from Kampala to Luzira, Bweyogere, Ntinda, Mulago, Nakawa and Namugongo. We are told that the government plans to create a bus lane on Bombo road near Wandegeya.
