*Project Update – Kyentaama Gravity Flow Scheme (GFS)*
Yesterday, together with the community, we commenced the excavation of the pipeline trench from the Supply (SUP) Tank to the Reservoir Tank as part of the Kyentaama Gravity Flow Scheme (GFS).
The pipeline will convey water from the supply tank to the reservoir tank, marking another important milestone in the implementation of the project.
This activity demonstrates the community's commitment and participation in improving access to safe and reliable water.
Once completed, the scheme will significantly enhance water service delivery to residents of Bwahwa Parish, Nyabuhikye Sub-county, in @IbandaLocal .
Together, we are taking meaningful steps toward improving public health, sanitation, and livelihoods through increased access to clean and safe water. 💧🚰
