    "content": "Additionally, KeNHA has assessed the section at Equator and Mununga stretch and noted that these sections require road marking for bumps. Consequently, the contractors have been instructed to re-mark the bumps as specified in the scope of works. There is something on the measures being undertaken to enhance road safety through installation of proper signage, reflective markers, and other visual aids to ensure optimal visibility and adequate warning to road users, especially during night-time and adverse weather conditions. The Ministry submitted that the contractors on site have been instructed to implement additional safety measures including installation of guardrails with Swareflex reflectors, direction traffic signs, and marking centre lines. However, the Ministry added that they continue to face challenges with the vandalism of newly installed traffic signs, Swareflex reflectors on rail guards, and other stands. On the timelines for implementation of these road safety improvements, including completion dates for the installation of speed bumps, warning signs, and associated road safety infrastructure, the Ministry submitted that implementation of these road safety improvements is currently underway as part of the ongoing routine maintenance works. The works were expected to be completed by the end of March 2025. As indicated, this has not been completed and is expected to be completed soon. The Committee will engage the Ministry on this matter to ensure that this road and other roads across the country are safe for all road users."
