The Ministry of Works and Transport (MoWT) has announced that the review process of the Express Penalty System (EPS Auto) is still ongoing, following the temporary suspension of its implementation on June 12, 2025.

The Ministry said the suspension was issued by the Minister of Works and Transport in response to concerns raised by road users, particularly public service vehicle operators, regarding the system’s effectiveness, fairness, and implementation gaps.

In a public statement issued on Sunday, the Ministry clarified that the goal of the suspension is to allow for a comprehensive review of the entire system, including regulations and operational challenges, before reinstating any enforcement.

Key stakeholders such as the Uganda Police Force, Kampala Capital City Authority, Ministry of Justice and Constitutional Affairs, and various technical partners have been involved in multi-agency discussions aimed at evaluating the system. Among the issues being reviewed are system-related errors, unrealistic speed limits, payment timelines, and the fairness of fees and surcharges.

The Ministry said that both technical and legal committees have been constituted to study the identified concerns in depth and recommend practical reforms. The findings and proposals will be submitted to the Ministry’s top leadership and then presented to Cabinet for consideration and eventual public sensitization and implementation.

While the EPS Auto system remains suspended, the Ministry emphasized that all existing road safety laws remain in force. The public is urged to obey traffic signs, respect speed limits and pedestrian zones, and avoid reckless driving and other traffic offenses.

“The Ministry remains committed to a fair, transparent, and citizen-centered road safety enforcement system,” said Susan Kataike, the Ministry’s Principal Communications Officer and spokesperson.

She urged all road users have been urged to uphold road safety as a shared responsibility. The Ministry promised to keep the public informed of the outcomes of the ongoing review.
