The Roads Authority recognizes the importance of establishing a good road network across rural areas. It is against this background that the authority proposes to upgrade the two gravel roads DR3507 Bukalo - Ngoma (60 km) and DR3559 Silumbi - Sizimbukwa (15 km) to Low Volume Seal Standards (Bitumen or tarred road). The total length of the two roads is approximately 75 km long and will form a vital link to the national road network, through the provision of access to communities living along the route. Construction of these roads will help alleviate the current problems that the locals are faced with in accessing basic services such as clinics, markets, and schools.
