The Ministry of Works and Transport (MoWT) has commenced a comprehensive engagement with key road safety stakeholders, including civil society organizations, ahead of the rollout of Uganda’s mandatory vehicle inspection program. The engagement, held at the Namanve Motor Vehicle Inspection Facility, gave participants a firsthand look at the automated inspection process that will soon be applied to all vehicles in the country.
During the session, Commissioner for Transport Regulation and Safety, Winstone Katushabe, and his technical team demonstrated the facility’s advanced automated systems designed to assess critical vehicle safety components such as brakes, suspension, lighting systems, and other essential features.
