    "content": "Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA), constructs footbridges along the Thika Superhighway. In considering the Petition, the Committee held a meeting with the Petitioner and the Member of Parliament attended our meeting. After a long consideration of the matters raised in the Petition, the Committee made the following observations:- The residents of Juja Constituency highly appreciate the numerous economic, environmental and infrastructural benefits brought about by the construction of the Thika Superhighway. It includes creation of jobs, facilitation of transportation, access and demand for goods and services. It has eased suppliers’ efforts. Currently, there are 18 footbridges along the Thika Superhighway and 10 more footbridges were designed and have not been constructed due to budgetary constraints. Having considered the matters brought to the Committee by the Petitioner, the Committee recommends the Ministry of Transport, Infrastructure, Housing and Urban Development should construct the 10 already designed footbridges to help curb road carnage. The Ministry, through the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA), should ensure that traffic laws are enhanced, not only along this road, but also across the country and offenders should be prosecuted. The area Member attended, but he seems not to be in the House now. I confirm he was with us and he was happy with the report that was given by the Cabinet Secretary (CS)."
