EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Strategic Plan sets out a roadmap for executing the functions of the Ministry in the next Five years (2011-2016). The Plan aims to competitively meet the expectations of the diverse stakeholders, build capacity of the selected sector players, inform the annual budgeting process and foster strategic alliance and partnerships to attract funding to the Sector. The Strategic Plan presents the mandate, vision, and mission of the Ministry. It includes the organizational structure of the Ministry, the Situation Analysis, Staffing Levels, Transport Agencies, Key Functions and Modes of Transport, status of the existing Policies and Legislation governing the Works and Transport Sector. The Plan presents the Sector Strategic Objectives, Key Outputs, the Implementation Strategy, Financing Plan and the Monitoring and Evaluation Strategy. To achieve the mission, the Ministry has well trained human resource, physical assets, staff development plan, essential sector policies and a clear mandate. On the other hand, there are issues which constrain effective service delivery such as limited teamwork, low levels of confidence among the staff, scattered offices and inadequate contract management skills. The Ministry benefits from a team of committed Development Partners, prioritization of the sector by government, functional Transport Agencies and East African Community initiatives in the Transport Sector as avenues which can be used to improve service delivery. Conversely, there are few threats which affect the Ministry in pursuance of its mandate. These include staff turn-over, unplanned/emergency intervention on the road network ravaged by rains/floods, frequent external audits and procurement reviews. The Strategic Plan was premised on the National Development Plan and the National Transport Master Plan including the Master Plan for GKMA. In line with the Ministry and departmental mandates, Interventions, strategies and outputs to address the Sector objectives were developed. The Ministry will require input of other Sector players in the fulfillment of the seven strategic objectives. Departmental budgets to make up the total budget that covers five years were developed. Equally, the overall budget was guided by MTEF ceilings.
Monitoring and Evaluation of the Plan was based on the Indicators earmarked in the Sector Monitoring and Evaluation Framework. The indicators will measure the progress of the interventions and outputs. The indicators measure the sector-wide performance aimed at informing overall strategic management including review sector policies. The key assumptions made in the Strategic Plan are that; Ministry will retain its structure and mandate, the GoU budget and donor support will be sufficiently maintained to finance the

departmental activities and top management assumes ownership of the Plan. The Plan identifies key possible risks and these include unpredictable funding, budget cuts, declining Donor confidence, poor collaboration among sector agencies, attracting committed and competent staff turnover, staff indiscipline, weak and unprofessional private sector.

CHAPTER ONE
1.0 INTRODUCTION
1.1 Overview The Strategic Plan of the Ministry of Works and Transport was formulated to determine the direction and destination of the Ministry for the next five years and how it is going to get there. The Plan sets out an implementation framework for undertaking the key functions of the Ministry for the period 2011-2016. The Strategic Plan was formulated in line with the National Development Plan (2010/11 -2014/15) and the National Transport Master Plan (NTMP) which includes a Transport Master Plan for Greater Kampala Metropolitan Area (TMP/GKMA) (2008-2023). The Plan is a product of a Change Management Process undertaken to re-focus the Ministry after a restructuring process carried out in 2008. The restructuring and reforms in the Sector resulted into:
a) Creation of the Uganda National Roads Authority (UNRA), entrusted with responsibility of planning, constructing and maintaining of national roads;
b) Creation of the Uganda Road Fund (URF), entrusted with responsibility of determining, receiving, and directly transferring the fuel levy and other road user taxes directly to UNRA and Local Governments for road maintenance.
c) A downsizing and transforming the functions of the Ministry of Works and Transport. The restructuring was meant to spin off and devolve the Ministry functions that were inconsistent with its role, such as road construction and maintenance, road development, plant management, ferry services management, axle load control management etc. These functions were included in the portfolio of the Uganda National Roads Authority which is an implementing agency. Likewise, other modes of transport such as air and railway transport are shouldered by the Civil Aviation Authority and Uganda Railways Corporation/Rift Valley Railways respectively. The Ministry of Works and Transport retained the key functions of policy formulation, planning, Regulation, Setting Standards, Advocacy Monitoring and Evaluation. The Ministry is the Sector leader with the overall responsibility of determining the strategic direction for the development of the Transport Sector.

1.1.2 Structure of the Strategic Plan The plan is comprised of four Chapters; Chapter One presents the overview, mandate, vision and mission, key functions and Values/Principles. Chapter two presents the contextual analysis, Sector Agencies and modes of transport and lastly an analysis of the SWOT (Strength, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats); Chapter Three covers objectives, outputs, Key assumptions implementation strategy and financingthe Plan and Chapter Four presents the monitoring and evaluation plus the risk analysis. Departmental action plans and activity budgets are annexes at the end.
1.1.3 Significance and Purpose of the Strategic Plan The Strategic Plan for the MoWT charts out strategies towards attainment of the vision. Specifically, the plan aims to position the Ministry effectively to;
a) Meet the expectations of diverse stakeholders b) Be a one stop reference for the activities to deliver the Ministry’s mandate c) Build capacity for the Ministry and selected sector players d) Inform the annual budgeting process e) Strengthen professionalism in the Sector f) Forge strategic alliances and partnerships so as to attract funding to develop the Sector.
1.1.4 Process of Developing a Strategic Plan The Strategic Plan was developed through a consultative and participatory process within the Ministry and with key transport stakeholders. Towards the end of 2010, the Senior Management Team of MoWT engaged in a brain-storming session in Jinja and carried out a SWOT analysis of the Ministry taking cognizance of the restructuring and the revision of the Ministry’s mandate. A Task Team was formed to engage departments to formulate action plans and cost the Strategic Plan. A workshop for Senior Officers to discuss the first Draft Strategic Plan was held in July 2011, A Senior Management meeting was held in December to review the second draft and the Strategic Plan was finally approved by the Top Management Team of the Ministry in February 2012. The involvement of the different stakeholders was important in order to ensure ownership of the plan. 1.2 Mandate, Vision and Mission of the Ministry 1.2.1 Mandate

CHAPTER TWO
2.0 CONTEXTUAL ANALYSIS The Strategic Plan was developed in line with the National Development Plan (NDP). This chapter presents the environment in which the Ministry operates. It specifically presents the Transport and Works Sector Agencies, Modes of Transport, Policies and Legislations, the Situational Analysis, the Organization Structure and Staffing Levels. The National Development Plan The National Development Plan (NDP), a new development framework for the GoU for the period 2009/10-2013/14, highlights the strategic agenda for development and further details priority interventions in all sectors of the economy including health nutrition. The overall goal of the NDP is to accelerate economic growth to reduce poverty. The NDP seeks to achieve 7 development objectives as follows: a) Increasing household incomes; b) Enhancing the quality and availability of gainful employment; c) Improving the stock and quality of economic and trade infrastructure; d) Increasing availability and access to quality social services; e) Promoting innovation and competitive industries; f) Harnessing natural resources and the environment for sustainable development; and g) Strengthening good governance and improving human security
The NDP therefore acknowledges that development of the Works and Transport Sector is a critical component of economic development.
2.1 Works and Transport Sector Agencies
2.1.1 Uganda National Roads Authority UNRA was established by the Uganda National Roads Authority Act, 2006, to manage, maintain and develop the national road network. The Authority became operational in July 2008. The Authority is gradually building its capacity to deliver its mandate to construct and maintain national roads. The Ministry exercises its policy guidance and oversight over UNRA based on an annual Performance Agreement.
2.1.2 Civil Aviation Authority CAA exercises both regulatory and operational authority over Entebbe international airport and the other airfields located around the country. CAA also designates domestic and international air carriers.
MoWT Strategic Plan - 2011/12 - 2015/16 ______________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________ Vision- To provide reliable and safe works, transport infrastructure and services.

The Authority monitors air safety regulations and standards management in collaboration with the Civil Aviation Safety and Security Oversight Agency (CASSOA) that was recently established by the EAC Partner States. The Ministry exercises its policy guidance and oversight over CAA based on a Memorandum of Understanding.
2.1.3 Uganda Road Fund URF was established in 2008 by an Act of Parliament to carry out the following functions: a) To finance the routine and periodic maintenance of public roads in Uganda b) To ensure that public roads are maintained at all times; and c) To advise the Minister on:-
i. Preparation and effective implementation of the Annual Road Maintenance Program; and ii. Control of overloading of vehicles on public roads.
The Ministry, in collaboration with the Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development, exercises its policy guidance and oversight responsibility to URF based on a Performance Agreement.
2.1.4 Uganda Railways Cooperation The Government strategy for the rail sub-sector is through long-term concessioning of infrastructure maintenance and rail services to the private sector while retaining responsibility for regulation. URC, however, remains responsible for regulation and oversight of the rail sub-sector as well as management of railway stock and assets that are excluded from the concession. The Corporation is also responsible for management of the Inland Water Ports. The Ministry exercises its policy guidance and oversight responsibility for railway operations based on a memorandum of understanding.
2.1.5 Transport Licensing Board (TLB) Transport Licensing Board (TLB) is a Statutory Body established by an Act of Parliament, under the Traffic and Road Safety Act, 1998. The main functions of the Board are to regulate the use of public Transport vehicles; private omnibuses; goods transport vehicles throughout Uganda in accordance with the provisions of the traffic and Road Safety Act, (1998) through granting routes for bus operations inspect and licensing Inland Water Transport Vessels.
2.1.6 National Road Safety Council (NRSC) The National roads Safety Council promotes road safety education and conducts public awareness campaigns to ensure safety on the road network.

2.1.7 Engineers Registration Board (ERB) ERB was established by an Act of Parliament, under the Engineers’ registration Act 1969 (Chapter 271). The board regulates and controls Engineers and their activities within Uganda and to advise the Government in relation to those functions.
2.1.8 Uganda Institution of Professional Engineers (UIPE) The UIPE was established as an Association of Professional Engineers of Uganda in 1972, as a successor to the defunct East Africa Institution of Engineers (EAIE) which had started in 1945. The objectives and purposes of the Uganda Institution of Professional Engineers are to promote the general advancement of the science and practice of engineering and its applications, and to facilitate the exchange of information and ideas on those subjects amongst the members of the Institution.
2.2 The Works/Construction Industry Government adopted a Policy for Development and Strengthening the National Construction Industry (NCIP). The main objective of the NCI Policy is to improve regulation and development of the NCI thereby addressing the constraints associated with the Industry. The Policy notes that the National Construction Industry (NCI), comprising both the building and civil engineering sub sectors, performs an indispensable role in building the economy. The NCI delivers the physical infrastructure that is central to the country’s economic development. Its activities create business to suppliers, manufacturers and offer employment to professionals, skilled and unskilled labour. It transforms private and public plans for capital formation.
2.3 Transport Modes The sector is composed of five transport modes, namely: road, railway, inland water transport, air and pipeline transport.
2.3.1 Road Transport Road transport in Uganda is by far the most dominant mode. It plays an essential role in facilitating the realization of economic and social development programmes. Over 95 percent of the country's passenger and freight traffic is transported by Road, and provides almost all the access to rural communities. The road network is categorized as follows: a) National roads that connect major urban and/or major regional commercial and
administrative centers; b) District roads that connect the rural population to District administration headquarters,
major towns and trading centers; and major social amenities like hospitals and schools in the rural areas;

c) Urban roads that lie within the boundaries of urban authorities connecting the urban population to various facilities within the urban area; and
d) Community Access roads which provide rural communities with access to administrative and social services, economic activities; and finally link them to the District road network
The road network is interfaced with some ferry landing sites that link roads, on opposite sides of water-ways. Uganda is part of the northern and central transport corridors that convey both exports and imports, via the coastal neighbors, Kenya and Tanzania respectively. The country’s road network also provides transit corridors for the other more landlocked neighbours namely, Rwanda, Burundi, eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) and Southern Sudan. The road network serves national, regional and international economies. The strategic importance of maintaining and developing the road network in good condition cannot therefore be over-emphasized. The Uganda road network totals 81,329km. Of this 20,000km, are categorized as National Roads, of which 3000km are paved and the remaining 17,800km are gravel. District Roads total to 22,750km and are virtually all unpaved, 3,579km, of the total are urban roads, and 35,000km is Community Access roads; which are all earth. The motorized vehicle fleet in 2008, including motorcycles, is estimated at 470,488 vehicles. The total fleet, excluding motorcycles, is 234,036 vehicles; and of this, 60% are passenger vehicles (buses, minibuses and cars), 25% light goods vehicles (pickup vans and 4-wheel drives), and 12% are heavy vehicles.
2.3.2 Rail Transport The operation of railways in Uganda was up to 2006 under the management of Uganda Railways Corporation, a Government statutory body. In line with the Government Policy of divestiture, management of the railways was from 2006 concessioned to a private company, Rift Valley Railways (RVR). The adjoining Kenya Railways was also jointly concessioned to RVR; thus having an integral railway operation from Kampala to the sea port of Mombasa, Kenya. The railway network in Uganda totals to 1,244.4km, of which only 258.6km (21%) are operational. Passenger services have since been withdrawn. The routes largely offer freight services for imports and exports. The operational routes are: Kampala – Jinja- Tororo 249 km Kampala – Port Bell 9.6 km Total 258.6 km
MoWT Strategic Plan - 2011/12 - 2015/16 ______________________________________________________________________________
___________________________________________________________________________ Vision- To provide reliable and safe works, transport infrastructure and services.
9
URC progressively withdrew its services from a number of routes culminating into a total of 985.8km, 79% of the network, being closed. The non-operational routes are: Kampala – Kasese (western extension) 333 km Jinja – Mbulamuti - Busembatia (Busoga loop) 146 km Tororo – Mbale– Soroti–Lira– Gulu– Pakwach (northern line) 506.8 km Total 985.8 km
Within Uganda RVR operates services from Kampala to Tororo/Malaba (border with Kenya) and a spur line from Kampala to Port Bell pier on Lake Victoria. From Tororo/Malaba, the Kenya railway network joins the Uganda network connecting to the Port of Mombasa. The railway service in Uganda is also responsible for wagon ferries and ferry routes across Lake Victoria. From the Port Bell pier, wagon-ferries connect to the Tanzania railway network at Mwanza on Lake Victoria; and onward to Dar-es-Salaam. The wagon ferries also join the Kenya railway network at Kisumu and proceed to Mombasa seaport. Uganda’s hitherto fleet of 3 wagon ferries is currently non-functional; with two wagon ferries having collided, and one of them sunk as a result. The remaining two are grounded pending possible repair. Table 1 shows value addition for Uganda Railways Corporation (URC). With the exception of the year 2003/4 when it achieved a value addition growth rate of 2.7%, the rail sub-sector performance declined throughout the period 2002/03 to 2006/07. Table 1: Rail Sub-Sector Performance Variable 2002/03 2003/04 2004/05 2005/06 2006/07 Rail Sub-sector value Addition (Million Ushs) at constant 1997/98 prices

Rail Sub-sector Value Addition Percentage Growth
-1.6 2.8 -6.6 -11.4 -2.9
Source: UBOS Statistical Abstract 2007 and Background to the Budget The sub-sector had substantial negative value addition growth rates of -1.6%,-6.6%. -11.4% and -2.9% in 2002/03, 2004/05, 2005/06 and 2006/07 respectively. This is a reflection of the decline in the role of railway in the haulage of heavy bulk traffic, especially imports and exports. Most of the traffic is taken on by road, increasing the number of Equivalent Standard Axles (ESAs) on the roads and hence the rate of pavement deterioration.

2.3.3 Inland Water Transport Uganda is endowed with an expanse of water resources in the form of lakes and rivers. Inland Water Transport has great potential. It plays an important role in the provision of low-cost access to remote islands and shoreline locations on the lakes and connecting desired destinations along banks of navigable rivers. It further enhances agricultural production and the fast-growing fishing industry by facilitating movement of agricultural produce and fish to markets and processing facilities. Short distance ferry services that are essentially road bridges are provided between two road systems separated by water. The ferry services currently in operation are: a) Bukakata (Masaka) – Luuku (Ssese Islands) on Lake Victoria; b) Kiyindi (Mukono) – Kirongo (Buvuma Island) on Lake Victoria; c) Nakiwogo (Mpigi) – Kyanvumbu (Mpigi) on Lake Victoria; d) Wanseko (Masindi) – Panyimur (Nebbi) on Lake Albert; e) Masindi Port (Masindi) – Kungu (Apac) on Victoria Nile; f) Umi (Adjumani) – Laropi (Moyo) on Albert Nile; and g) Murchison Falls National Park (the Uganda Wildlife Authority (UWA) operates commercial
ferry services at Paraa on Victoria Nile). With the exception of the recently acquired Kalangala Ship, plying between the mainland and Kalangala islands, the inland water transport in Uganda is characterized by obsolete water vessels which are in a state of disrepair; poor landing infrastructure and facilities, disjointed laws and regulations; and inadequate planning and monitoring. In addition, private operators provide informal services on waterways, mainly using open canoes with onboard or outboard engines. The canoes carry passengers, goods and livestock. The vessels are often overloaded, with the attendant risk of capsizing. As a result of the above situation, inland water transport continues to experience frequent accidents.
2.3.4 Pipeline Transport The bulk of the country’s white oil products are transported by pipeline from Mombasa oil refinery to Eldoret and Kisumu, in Kenya. From Eldoret and Kisumu the oil products are transported to Kampala by road through Malaba or Busia or by rail through Malaba or rail wagon ferry from Kisumu to Port Bell. The governments of Kenya and Uganda agreed to extend the Mombasa-Eldoret pipeline by 320 km to Kampala. As per the National Transport Master Plan 2009, construction of the pipeline that is expected to take 12 months, is about to start. Meanwhile, the on-going Oil exploration along Lake Albert indicates that Uganda is set to produce commercial quantities of Oil.

11
This may call for construction of an Oil pipeline to transport either the crude or refined oil, depending on the decisions that will be taken in regard to the location of the refinery.
2.3.5 Air Transport The aviation industry in Uganda is regulated by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), an autonomous statutory body established in 1994. Uganda has one International Airport at Entebbe and airfields distributed across the country namely: Kidepo (private), Arua, Gulu, Moroto, Pakuba, Lira, Soroti, Masindi, Tororo, Jinja, Kasese, Mbarara, and Kisoro. Entebbe International Airport is Uganda’s main gateway for passengers and cargo; as well as a domestic hub for the upcountry airfields. Uganda being a land-locked country, an efficient air transport system is of immense strategic value for the movement of international passengers, perishable exports such as vegetables, fish, fruits and flowers and evacuations of emergency nature. There has been considerable increase in international passenger traffic, growing by 149,722 passengers (an increase of 87.2%) from 171,656 in 2000 to 321,378 in 2006.

CHAPTER FOUR
4.0 MONITORING, EVALUATION AND RISK ANALYSIS
4.1 Monitoring and Evaluation Monitoring and Evaluation is a prerequisite for measuring performance. A mid-term review will be carried out after two and a half (2.5) years of plan implementation. This will be done to ensure that resources allocated towards the implementation of the plan are translated into a long-term impact in the Sector. A set of Key Performance Indicators developed in the Sector Monitoring and Evaluation framework will be largely used to measure attainment of the objectives. A mid-term review will be undertaken in the FY 2013/14 and the final evaluation at the end of the implementation period. Key lessons learnt will be documented and these will form a basis for future improvement. Evaluation will be conducted under two categories; a) Departmental assessments on the basis of the work plans as indicated in Annexes 1. b) The Ministry will be evaluated on the basis of the overall performance under the 17 Golden
indicators contained in the sector M&E framework.
4.2 Key Performance Indicators Monitoring and Evaluation will be undertaken to ensure successful implementation of the Plan. An M&E Framework was formulated. It consists of 17 key sector performance indicators- the Golden Indicators. These summarize the transport situation in the road, rail, air and water transport sub-sectors, thereby enabling results-based management of the Sector. The Golden Indicators are related to the mandate and functions of the Ministry and its Agencies. The indicators complement other sets of indicators, notably those used in the Annual Government Performance Report and the JAF.
