    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, as I have already indicated that my Ministry does not recommend the use of bumps to reduce speed. This is because the reason we have used so much money to improve our roads is to increase the flow of traffic on our roads. So, when we rehabilitate the roads and then erect bumps all over, the difference between the bumps and actual potholes would be nil. Therefore, my Ministry has come up with other measures to ensure that we reduce road accidents. Among them is the installation and maintenance of traffic signs, marking of pedestrian crossing and ensuring that they are obeyed or enforced; enforcement of traffic rules and the provision of non- motorized transport facilities. I think this is what I had mentioned earlier, where we have a special path where the pedestrians and cyclists can use and, therefore, reduce the interaction with the vehicles. We also have the use of footbridges to ensure that pedestrians cross in designated areas and, therefore, reduce the possibility of accidents."
