Low Cost Sealing of the Busaana Town Council Roads in Kayunga District is currently underway.

Low-cost sealing is an innovative technology that is aimed at improving all weather rural accessibility and reducing gravel loss.

The technology involves the sealing of low volume roads utilizing locally available resources.

In Uganda, the technology is being used to seal roads which would otherwise not merit sealing using conventional and more costly methods.

[Ministry of Works & Transport @MoWT_Uganda]

Under the Research and Innovation section of the Construction Standard and Quality Management Department, numerous technologies have been piloted to ascertain their applicability to Ugandan infrastructure needs before rolling them out nationwide,these include;

🚧Probase Technology
