CCM has announced an ambitious plan to upgrade the road infrastructure in Morogoro Region over the next five years. As part of its 2025–2030 election manifesto, the party has pledged to improve a total of 25 roads — 17 of them gravel roads and eight upgraded to tarmac standard.

Speaking to residents in Mikumi and Kilosa, CCM’s vice-presidential candidate, Ambassador Dr Emmanuel Nchimbi, said the initiative is aimed at unlocking greater opportunities in trade, agriculture, livestock, and tourism in the region, which is considered an economic hub.

Among the roads scheduled for tarmacking are Mikumi Town (2 km), Kichangani–Kimamba (18 km), Dumila–Kilosa–Mikumi (143 km), Rudewa–Kilosa (24 km), the Kilosa–Mikumi project (72 km), and Miombo–Lumuma–Idete (72 km).

In addition, a number of roads will be constructed to an all-weather gravel standard to ensure year-round accessibility. These include Masumbwe–Kipange (17 km), Miombo–Kilangali–Mbamba (18 km), Msongo–Kipande (17 km), Parakuyo–Twatwatwa (24 km), Rudewa–Kisare (13 km), Berega–Mwandiga (6.3 km), Fuoni–Idete (6 km), and Ruaha Mbuyuni–Chad (27 km).

Other gravel roads include Rudewa–Unono (14 km), Zombo–Ulaya (24 km), Mamboya–Ponela (17 km), Mvumi–Ngege (32 km), Ng’ombe Nusu (18 km), and Tatu–Magu–Butimba (22 km).

Dr Nchimbi noted that the road projects would be accompanied by significant investment in irrigation-based agriculture, modern livestock rearing, fishing, the construction of markets, modern bus terminals, and healthcare centres. 

These efforts, he said, are designed to enhance the well-being of citizens and accelerate socio-economic growth across the region.

He urged citizens to turn out in large numbers on the 29th to protect their votes and elect CCM to continue leading the country, stating that such projects can only be implemented successfully with consistent political leadership and public support.
