"content": "Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise pursuant to Standing Order 47(1) to make a Statement on an issue of general topical concern on consideration and construction of a road access by the Kenya Urban Road Authority (KURA) to construct a road access to Membley Daykio Estate in Kiambu County. Membley Daykio Estate in Ruiru is a fast growing, high-end suburb located in Ruiru Town of Kiambu County. It borders both Eastern and Northern Bypasses and it is a short distance from Kenyatta University and Tatu City. The churches located within the Estate include; PCEA Membley Church, Kamiti Parish; St. Theresa’s Catholic Church and Deliverance Church Membley. In addition, there are several educational institutions within the Estate that include Membley High School, Montessori Christian Kindergarten and PCEA Membley School. Further, there are around 500 families that live in this Estate. This is in addition to about 1,500 adults and students that visit the churches and the educational institutions located in the estate from other estates. Due to high vehicular traffic that is generated on a daily basis, there is need for a proper T-junction to the estate with associated acceleration and deceleration lanes from the main Eastern Bypass and an access ramp. Mr. Speaker, Sir, for months now, work on the dual lane of the Eastern Bypass being undertaken by China Communication Construction Company (CCCC) has been going on. However, there are concerns by the residents of Membley Daykio Estate that certain key items were not considered during the initiation of this project and that has affected the residents accessibility to the estate such as - (1) Proper entrances to the estate from the main carriageway Eastern Bypass with associated acceleration and deceleration lanes and a ramp to the main carriageway."
