The road is accessible for motorcycles, carts, and pedestrians as it connects Ssekke and Kinoni town council and is adjacent to people's fields, including food such as orchards, corn, etc., but now users of the road say they pass by praying for fear of falling.
The road is mainly used by school children, water vendors in carts, and those who draw water from the Namuyimbwa well which is well known for its clean water and is very popular with the residents. Sometimes some drain the sewer.
Kibuuka Kizito Mbaaga, the mayor in charge of the area, said he has been talking about the site for a long time and even appealed to the Minister of Water, Hon. He added that the district officials had informed him that the valley was too large for him, and they wrote to the National Roads Authority (UNRA), but they have not received any response yet.
The mayor appealed to the Ministry of Disaster Management to visit the site before it gave birth to a baby because it would cause problems at any time.
Parents say their hearts are in the air for the site for their children who pass by, especially when they go to school and have been sent.
The canal is adjacent to the residents' food and on the road, they used to go to their fields.

Meanwhile, the watermen who work at the site complained about the politicians who came and took selfies and then left and threatened to attack them in the office.
That is when they will see the pain they are suffering because this is where they go to buy charcoal, he added, adding that sometimes they stop selling water and do the job of crossing the elderly children. (Small guy with white shirt)
The job of driving water has become boring for the road while they come to feed and support their families
Nakibuule Madinah, who is the user of the road, thanked councilor Nampijja Nuliat who came out to help them by raising money to buy the rotten trees. They also appealed to the concerned authorities to look to the councilors to help them with their children.
Biguzeho Charles, the chairman of the water diggers, thanked the mayor for the promised assistance of R500,000 and promised to owe him until he gives it to them.
