"content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I indicated, funds amounting to Kshs20 million were availed through the DRA, Trans Nzoia, in May, 2009, and a contract sum of Kshs19,999,000 was procured for the works in June, 2009. During the implementation, it was found necessary to vary the length of the culverts from 38 metres to 50 metres. This, in effect, significantly affected the cost of the project. A total of Kshs17,000,972 has already been given. The assessment of the remaining works which would safeguard what the hon. Member is requesting would amount to about Kshs130 million to ensure that the link road connecting this particular bridge is also connected. We are in the process of securing this amount of money. However, in particular, what will be required for the backfilling of the bridge alone is Kshs35 million. That is our priority for now to ensure that we do not waste away what we have already invested."
