    "content": " Mr. Deputy Speaker, 1370 PARLIAMENTARY DEBATES June 14, 2006 Sir, I beg to reply. (a) Yes, I am aware that Ugege and Nzoia Bridges on Road C90 in Ugenya Constituency are too narrow and can only accommodate one vehicle at a time. I am also aware that these two bridges are on a classified road, Road C90. (b) I am not aware that the two bridges are in a deplorable state. Nzoia Bridge was repaired in 2005 at a cost of Kshs1 million, out of an allocation of Kshs1.5 million. The balance of Kshs500,000 was used to upgrade Ugege Bridge, which needed repairs. I am only aware that the approaches to the bridges require urgent attention. (c) The traffic on Road C90 does not justify the expansion of the bridges at the moment. However, the improvement of the approaches at Ugege and Nzoia bridges will be undertaken under the gravelling contract of Ukwala-Ugunja-Butere Road, which is on-going."
