The quarries were used to supply materials for road construction and left open after completion of projects.
Residents complain that the open pits left behind pose a danger to locals and domestic animals. Some of the pits have been filled up by rain water and become a breeding ground for malaria-transmitting mosquitoes.
Two children drowned in the flooded pits in April last year and another two in 2018.
Mr Joseph Kamugisha, whose son drowned in Nyakibigi quarry in 2018, said he is haunted by memories of his son whenever he passes by the quarry site.
