We are pleased to inform the public that the long-awaited rehabilitation of Kangaru Market, located in Kirimari Ward, has officially commenced, following the commitments made during our recent public participation forum. True to our promise, the contractor is now on site, and the market is buzzing with activity as various improvement works are underway.

Key Upgrades to Kangaru Market

The rehabilitation project includes a series of vital upgrades aimed at enhancing both the functionality and aesthetic appeal of the market, including:

• Cabro Installation: Modern, durable cabro blocks will be laid throughout the market area, providing a stable, attractive, and weather-resistant surface for vendors and customers.
• Street Lights: Installation of street lighting will improve security and extend the market’s operating hours, making it safer for vendors and shoppers during the evening.
• Construction of Entrance and Exit Gates: A dedicated entrance and exit gate will be constructed to streamline access and improve traffic flow within the market.
• Repairs of Market Facilities: Existing market structures, including vendor stalls and sanitary facilities, will undergo thorough repairs and upgrades to enhance comfort and usability.
• Murraming of Access Roads: The roads leading to and within the market will be murramed, ensuring smooth access for both vehicles and pedestrians.

Employment Opportunities for Local Youths

In addition to transforming the market, the project will engage local youths, providing them with employment opportunities throughout the rehabilitation process. This initiative is a partnership with the National Government through the Ministry of Housing, Urban Planning, and Public Works, reinforcing our commitment to community empowerment.

A Landmark Project for the Region

This rehabilitation marks a significant milestone for Kirimari Ward, as Kangaru Market is a key commercial hub for the local community. Upon completion, the market will not only serve as an improved trading space but will also contribute to the overall economic growth and development of the area.

We encourage all stakeholders and local residents to support and stay engaged in this landmark project, as we work together to create a vibrant, safe, and efficient market space for all.
