    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to answer. (a) Yes, I am aware that Kathita Bridge in Meru Town is narrow and is unable to handle human and vehicular traffic during rush hours. (b) My Ministry intends to build two foot bridges on both sides of Kathita River Bridge to be used by the pedestrians in order to avoid conflict with vehicular traffic on the bridge. Funding will be through Nkubu-Meru-Lewa Road, that is, B6 Project. Further, the Ministry initiated the process to procure a sub-contractor to construct the foot bridges in 2007 under the aforementioned projects. Bids were submitted towards the end of 2007 and are currently under evaluation to procure a suitable sub-contractor for the work. The award is expected by mid August, 2008. A total of Kshs6,700,000 was provided in a prime cost sum item for construction of foot bridges in the contract for rehabilitation of Nkubu-Meru-Lewa Road. The Kathita Foot Bridge, which are estimated to cost Kshs9 million, will be funded partly from the total sum items and the balance from the savings realised from the main contract."
