    "content": " Hon. Speaker, I thank you for giving me this opportunity. I also thank Waziri Chirchir for an attempt to address these issues. The Cabinet Secretary has talked about the situation in Westlands. He has also given an assurance to the Leader of the Majority Party that the work at Gitaru Bridge shall be completed within two months. Sandwiched between these two constituencies is Dagoretti South Constituency. We have a very precarious situation at Uthiru 87, where the bridge that crosses over Waiyaki Way is now a dangerous spot for motorable traffic, boda boda and people on foot. The accidents that have been happening there are very gory. I hope they have been reported to the Ministry. My question is this: Is the Ministry, in the interim, having any plans for any mitigation works as we await the mega works to make the bridge motorable so that it can depopulate traffic coming all the way from Karen and Ngong Road? When do we expect to see completion of this bridge at Uthiru 87? My second question has to do with the works on Naivasha Road, which are also connected to this works at the interchange at Dagoretti Corner and the dualling of Naivasha Road. What plans does the Ministry have on these very critical projects that would help decongest Ngong Road? Traffic that does not have to go into the city can offload onto Naivasha Road and connect to Waiyaki Way. Hon. Speaker, I truly thank you."
