Uganda Standard Gauge Railway

Oluguudo lw'eggaali y'omukka olwa Uganda Standard Gauge nkola ya ggaali y'omukka etegekeddwa okugatta eggwanga lino ku mawanga ag'omuliraano omuli Kenya, Rwanda, Democratic Republic of the Congo ne South Sudan, ng'omu ku nteekateeka y'eggaali y'omukka eya East African Railway Master Plan . Oluguudo lw'eggaali y'omukka olwa standard-gauge railway (SGR) lugendereddwamu okudda mu kifo ky’enkola y’eggaali y'omukka enkadde ey'ekika kya metre-gauge etakola bulungi. kilomita 1,724  (1,071 mi) SGR mu Uganda egenda kumalawo ddoola ezibalirirwamu obuwumbi 12 n’obukadde 800. https://www.theeastafrican.co.ke/business/Uganda-rethinks-Kenya-SGR-funding-gaps/2560-4253722-yr6y8s/index.html

 Okulambika okutwaliza awamu 
Obuwanvu buno obwa 1435 mm (4 ft.) oluguudo lw’eggaali y’omukka lugendereddwamu okwanguyiza okutambuza ebyamaguzi wakati w’omwalo gw’e Mombasa n’ekibuga ekikulu ekya Uganda ekya Kampala, n’oluvannyuma okubitwala e Kigali mu Rwanda, n’okutuuka e Beni mu Democratic Republic of the Congo n’okutuuka e Nimule ne Juba mu South Sudan. Ebyamaguzi byakutambuzibwa okuva e Mombasa nga biyita ku luguudo lw’eggaali y’omukka olwa Kenya Standard Gauge Railway okutuuka e Malaba, ku nsalo za Uganda, ne bikyusiddwa okuddizibwa ku gaali y'omukka eno. 

Mu Gwokuna 2017, okubalirira okwasooka ku Pulojekiti ya Uganda SGR yonna kwabalirirwamu obuse bwa UgandaUSh 45.6 (nga mu ddoola za Amerika 12.8). http://www.monitor.co.ug/News/National/Minister--Shs45-6-trillion--railway--project-cost-Kenya/688334-3880840-fwx8nl/index.html
