    "content": "Hon. Speaker, sometime in July I sought a Statement from the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Transport. I want to know when KURA was going to do the road in Athi River Town. I had indicated that Athi River Town is between the Nairobi-Mombasa Highway and Namanga Road. The road inside Athi River Town is about six kilometers. When the highways were being constructed by KeNHA all the lorries and heavy trucks were directed to pass through Athi River Town. Today there is no road in Athi River; what we have are gulleys. I happen to be the Member of Parliament of the most industrialized town in this country. There are 85 heavy machinery factories in Mavoko. All the lorries that access the factories pay fuel levy and other taxes to the Government. The residents of Athi River cannot access their homes because of poor roads. It is three months now. Hon. Speaker, may I demand an immediate action so that these roads are done."
