Uganda has announced the start of construction of the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) in August, in a decision that revives hope for the extension of Kenya’s Sh327 billion project whose viability was dependent on the Ugandan section.
Uganda says it has secured funds from the Standard Chartered Bank with a Turkish company getting the contract to construct the railway line after Kampala failed to get the money from China.
