Uganda Railways Corporation

Government Agency
Kampala, Uganda

​Uganda Railways Corporation (URC), established in 1977 following the dissolution of the East African Railways Corporation, serves as Uganda's primary railway system, reporting to the Ministry of Works and Transport.

The corporation's mission is to establish and manage reliable, efficient, and safe railway and marine transport services in East Africa to foster sustainable economic and social development. URC oversees a network spanning approximately 1,266 kilometers, including operational sections like the Malaba–Jinja–Kampala main line (251 km), and lines connecting Kampala to Port Bell and Nalukolongo. Despite historical challenges such as civil unrest and infrastructure degradation, URC has made significant strides in revamping services, notably relaunching cargo operations to Tanzania's Port of Dar es Salaam after a decade-long hiatus.

The corporation fosters a work culture emphasizing professionalism and dedication, offering various job opportunities to contribute to Uganda's transportation sector. Guided by core values of integrity, accountability, and excellence, URC actively engages in corporate social responsibility initiatives aimed at enhancing community well-being and supporting national development goals.
