To solve this challenge,@UEDCLTD & @nwscug have been recommended to help in standardizing utility relocation costs. ~There is a need to develop a protocol to guide voluntary land acquisition since there is No law guiding voluntary land acquisition. #GKMAConnect
Among the challenges affecting @GKMAUrbanDevt are errant telecom companies which install poles&cabling in roadways, increasing utility relocation costs. #GKMAConnect E.g, utility relocation costs for the project in Kampala increased from Ugx 4,500,000,000 to Ugx 13,000,000,000
