Toro","speaker_title":"The Assistant Minister for Roads and Public Works","speaker":{"id":239,"legal_name":"Joshua Ngugi Toro","slug":"joshua-toro"},"content":" Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) I am not aware that the construction of Road C19, between Katito and Kendu Bay, that was commissioned by His Excellency the President in the year 2005, has stalled. (b) I am not aware that the road has a design that cannot sustain 40-tonne lorries. (c) Despite the fact that the contractor delayed in mobilizing the works, the rate of progress is currently satisfactory and I expect the project to be completed as scheduled. Since the road has been designed to carry legal axle load limits, it will not be necessary to re-design the road."}
