The road starts at Mubende, at the Kampala-Fort Portal highway, about 150 kilometres (93 mi) west of the Kampala, Uganda's capital and largest city.[1] The road continues in a northerly direction to Kakumiro, about 33 kilometres (21 mi), north of Mubende.[2] From Kakumiro, the road turns westwards to Kibaale, and then northwestwards to Kagadi where in joins the Kyenjojo–Kabwoya Road, a distance of about 75 kilometres (47 mi) from Kakumiro.[3] The coordinates of the road near Kibaale are 0°46'14.0"N, 31°05'17.0"E (Latitude:0.770556; Longitude:31.088056).[4]

Upgrading to bitumen

As far back as 2010, the Uganda government began making plans to tarmac this road.[5] However, by May 2015, work on the road was yet to begin.[6] As at November 2014, bid evaluation was ongoing. The road works are fully funded by the government of Uganda.[7]
