    "content": "Thank you, hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for giving me this chance to contribute to this Motion. I want to start by saying that I support this very good Motion. When Jogoo and Ladhies roads are expanded, congestion will be eased. There are reasons why we have traffic jams and the biggest reason is the roundabouts. If the question of roundabouts is sorted out in the urban centres, traffic jams will have been controlled by 90 per cent. However, if roads are expanded and there are no overpasses, where there are roundabouts, there will always be a gridlock and vehicles will accumulate and form traffic jam. Therefore, this Motion is timely. It will ease traffic jams on the Eastlands side and besides that other roads have to be opened. If you come from Jogoo House to Uhuru Highway, you cannot access the airport without following Jogoo Road or the Airport Road. There has to be a road through the railway station; an overpass which moves from the Central Business District (CBD) to Industrial Area. New roads have to be opened so that traffic jams are not caused. Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, bad manners on the road where some drivers want to overlap is one of the reasons why we have traffic jams, besides having too many vehicles on the road."
