Uganda’s transport sector, vital to the nation’s economic growth, faces persistent challenges of congestion, poor road quality, limited public transport, and rising accidents despite increased government investment.

Deregulation offers a pathway to greater competition, innovation, and responsiveness to consumer needs, positioning the sector to better serve both economic and societal demands.
