It reviews Uganda’s transport sector status across roads, rail, air, inland water, and corridors, then assesses vulnerability and economic damage from climate hazards such as flooding, landslides, temperature extremes, and windstorms. The note also presents emissions trends, key assumptions, adaptation and mitigation options, and investment and cost considerations for resilient, low-emission transport.","Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized Pub lic Disclosure Authorized  \nEASTERN AND  \n SOUTHERN AFRICA  \nUGANDA  \n Transport Background Note  \nWorld Bank Group  \nMay 2025  \n© 2025 The World Bank Group  \n1818 H Street NW, Washington, DC 20433  \nTelephone: 202-473-1000; [Internet: www.worldbank.org](Internet: www.worldbank.org)  \nThis work is a product of the staff of the International Bank for Reconstruction and Development (IBRD), the International Development Association (IDA), the International Finance Corporation (IFC), and the Multilateral Investment Guarantee Agency (MIGA), collectively known as The World Bank Group, with external contributors.  \nThe World Bank Group does not guarantee the accuracy, reliability or completeness of the content included in this work, or the conclusions or judgments described herein, and accepts no responsibility or liability for any omissions or errors (including, without limitation, typographical errors and technical errors) in the content whatsoever or for reliance thereon.
