    "content": " Thank you, Mr. Speaker, Sir. I am glad that I am responding to this question having given a global picture of the roads in the country. Already I had shared with you the situation in the country, thanks to the question from the Deputy Speaker. Therefore, I will just go straight to the answer. I wish to state that 183 kilometres of roads have been upgraded to bitumen standards, with two major bridges constructed to completion in Nandi County since 2013 undertaken by Kenya Rural Roads Authority (KERRA). The details of the project are detailed in the annex. Concerning discrepancy between the contractual and actual dates of completion, I wish to state that the Ministry has faced financial challenges in the funding as earlier indicated due to inadequate allocation and disbursement from the National Treasury over the years."
