The Koboko–Yumbe–Moyo Road is a road in the Northern Region of Uganda, connecting the towns of Koboko, Yumbe, and Moyo.

Location

The road starts at Koboko, the headquarters of the Koboko District, and continues in a northeasterly direction, through Yumbe, where the headquarters of the Yumbe District are located, ending at Moyo, where the headquarters of the Moyo District are located. The road is approximately 110 kilometres (68 mi) long.[1]

Upgrading to bitumen

The road is a busy and important road for people and goods traveling between Arua and points south. During the 2016 political electoral season, President Yoweri Museveni promised to tarmac this gravel surfaced road, which is in disrepair.[2][3][4]
