    "content": " Madam Temporary Deputy Speaker, I beg to reply. (a) I am aware that Holo Bridge along the Kisii Road was damaged by the ongoing rains. I am also aware that the damaged bridge is posing danger to the road users and, therefore, my Ministry has closed that section and has diverted traffic. In addition, we made several warning announcements to the road users through the local media. (b) My Ministry, through the Kenya National Highways Authority (KENHA), has procured a contractor for the reconstruction of the bridge at a contract sum of Kshs39 million. The contractor has already reported on site. (c) My Ministry, through KENHA, has opened a diversion on the old alignment to enable a smooth flow of traffic along the road. So far, I have not received any reports of serious damage to Road D218 as a result of the damaged bridge. Nevertheless, my Ministry is continuing to monitor the situation with a view of carrying out the necessary action as the situation may require."
