    "content": " Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to reply. (a) My Ministry has included the Mumias-Bungoma Road in the routine maintenance programme for the Financial Year, 2008/2009. The potholes, which are the main defects affecting about 15 per cent of the road surface area, will be addressed during the routine maintenance works. The section between Mayoni and Harambee Shopping Centre lies on a high water table, which makes the damage more severe. My Ministry will institute measures to improve the drainage system so as to maintain and contain the problem. (b) Yes, I am aware that there are no speed bumps at Harambee Market. The Ministry is studying the volume of traffic at the location to rationalise the erection of speed bumps. (c) The performance of that road will be monitored during the routine maintenance within the Financial Year, 2008/2009. Thereafter, the road will be considered for re-carpeting in the Financial Year, 2009/2010. Thank you, Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker."
