Speaker, pursuant to the provisions of Standing Order 44(2) (c), I rise to request for a statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Transport and Infrastructure regarding the urgent need for expansion of the Busia–Kisumu Road and the Bungoma–Malaba Road to dual carriageways. Hon. Speaker, the Busia–Kisumu Road and the Bungoma–Malaba Road are vital transport networks in Western Kenya, linking key commercial towns and serving as transit routes for goods and services through the Busia and Malaba border points to and from the neighbouring countries, including Uganda, the Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda and Burundi. Notably, those major roads facilitate regional trade, contribute to local economies and are integral in sustaining Kenya’s position as a transport hub within the Northern Corridor. Hon. Speaker"

"content": "the poor state and congestion resulting from the narrowness of the said roads continue to cause accidents and prolonged truck queues as they approach the Busia and Malaba border posts, affecting trade and transport. Further, the lengthy presence of truck drivers in those regions, particularly in the Busia–Sega section of the Kisumu-Busia Road, has escalated cases of immorality and teenage pregnancies, posing serious social concerns. There is an urgent need to expand those key roads and designate truck parking yards so as to ease congestion, improve safety, and boost trade and economic growth in the region. Hon. Speaker, it is against this background that I request for a statement from the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Transport and Infrastructure on the following: 1. Immediate and short-term interventions by the Ministry of Roads and Transport and the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) to address congestion and safety hazards pending the dualling of the said roads, including the timelines and budget. 2. The long-term plans, including financing mechanisms and projected timelines for dualling the Bungoma-Malaba Road and the Kisumu-Busia Road. 3. The measures that have been put in place to address the social ills that are associated with the prolonged stay of truck drivers in the affected transit points, who particularly lure minors into illicit sex. I thank you, Hon. Speaker."
