"content": "Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, I was saying the Committee should have visited areas that are the bread basket of this country to classify the roads heading to these areas into Class “A” or “B”, so that it becomes compulsory for them to be tarmacked. They should also have visited areas heading to railway stations like the new Standard Gauge Railway (SGR). We visited those railway stations a few days ago with Members of the Public Investments Committee (PIC). No money was allocated under the SGR to enable people from the Nairobi Central Business District (CBD) and airports access railway stations. This is very important. When one alights from a railway station, it takes three hours to get to the CBD. So, it makes no sense to take only four hours from Mombasa to Nairobi then take three hours to the CBD. These areas should have been classified and made compulsory to be tarmacked or maybe upgraded to dual carriageway to avoid traffic jam."
