Towns Piped Water Supply Schemes
Design Review and Construction Supervision for; Kabembe – Kalagi - Naggalama towns (Lot 3) and Namulonge - Kiwenda towns (Lot 10) towns Piped Water Supply Schemes
Project Background:
Adequate water supply and sanitation infrastructure remains achallenge for Uganda’s long term sustainable socio-economic transformation with only 65% of the population in rural areas and 73% in urban areas having access to safe water.
The Water Sanitation Development Facility(WSDF) framework with the support of the Ministry of Water and Environment planned to undertake implementation of the Identified Strategic Small Towns Water supply and Sanitation projects through feasibility studies, Engineering detailed designs and construction supervision of the same.
