To Avoid possible disruptions by road users during the summit, City authorities provided several alternative roads.
For instance, people travelling from Central Business District (CBD) heading to Remera and Kanombe will use Nyabugogo or Yamaha towards Kinamba- Kacyiru-Nyarutarama- Kibagabaga-Kimironko.
Those who will wish to use another route will have to go through Nyabugogo/Yamaha-Kinamba-Kanogo- Rwandex- Sonatube- Niboye- Kabeza-Busanza-Kanombe, or use Nyamirambo-Rugunga- Kanogo or Gikondo- Rwandex- Sonatube- Niboye-Kabeza-Busanza-Kanombe roads.
