They say never to look back so am disappointed to see this symbol left in this pitiful condition. My father, Giulio Galli MdL was a civil engineer, Site/Contracts Manager with Stirling Astaldi (Africa) Ltd that was responsible for building and road construction in East Africa from 1948 onwards.It was during the construction in 1950 of the Kampala to Masaka Road that crosses the Equator at about 80 kms from Kampala that he decided with two other members of his team of surveyors, to carry out topographical work and calculations to determine at what point their new road crossed the Equator line. This done he ordered the construction of 2-3metre diameter concrete circles to stand opposite each other on either side of the road, connected by a concrete white line to mark the crossing. This in place of the makeshift signpost found marking the imaginary line. This was repeated at Kasese/Muhokya. What a shame that that enthusiasm has not been maintained, nor understood.
Salutari, am fost si eu vara asta in Kinira Thassos, as vrea sa merg aici si daca sunteti draguti sa-mi dati si mie datele de contact de la Rosie. Va multumesc mult! Cristian cromid.srl@gmail.com
