The Atiak–Adjumani–Moyo–Afonji Road is in the Northern Region of Uganda, connecting the towns of Atiak, Adjumani, Moyo, and Afoji at the international border with South Sudan.
[3] This transport corridor allows access to the country of South Sudan, through Moyo District, connecting to Gulu, the largest city in the Northern Region of Uganda.
The gravel-surfaced road develops gullies and becomes difficult and sometimes impossible to navigate during the rainy season.
[4] Beginning in 1998, the government of Uganda began to solicit feasibility and impact assessment studies concerning the rehabilitation of this road.
The work, expected to last 30 months is being carried out by Strabag International, of Austria, at a contract price of €54 million, co-funded by the European Development Fund and the government of Uganda.
