MBARARA AIRPORT; Potential investors unveil artistic impression

How the Nyakisharara (Mbarara Airport) will look Prime Minister Robinah Nabbanja says the company that has shown interest in developing the airport will finance the project using its own funds. The investor will later recover the investment through user charges and other airport facilities. The project will cover about 21 square kilometres of land and will have two runways measuring 5.5 kilometres. Government officials say the airport could transform Mbarara into a major aviation hub and support international flights to destinations such as China and Brazil.
