Uganda’s Ministry of Works and Transport is progressing the Engineering, Procurement, Construction and Turnkey (EPC/T) contract awarded to Turkish firm Yapi Merkezi for the Malaba–Kampala Standard Gauge Railway. The contractor is currently on a Limited Notice to Proceed, conducting design work, establishing a sleeper factory and construction camp, while full construction is targeted to begin in 2026. The contract binds Yapi Merkezi to ensure design compatibility with Kenya’s adjoining SGR network, and land acquisition along the corridor is well advanced.
