The Boda Boda Free Zone boundaries stretched from; Wampewo Roundabout- Jinja Road to Kitgum House junction – Access Road – Mukwano Road to Clock Tower –Kafumbe Mukasa Road –Kisenyi Road –Mackay Road- Kyaggwe Road- Watoto Church-Bombo Road – Wandegeya – Hajji Musa Kasule  Road- Mulago roundabout- Kamwokya junction – Sturrock Road – Prince Charles Drive- Lugogo Bypass–Jinja Road- Wampewo Roundabout.

Today morning police carried out an operation where it impounded hundreds of boda bodas that were trying to access the city center. However, Kampala Metropolitan Police deputy spokesperson Luke Owoyesigire has revealed that the operation has been suspended and pushed to end next month.
