    "content": "Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, indeed, I am very familiar with this section. First of all, we need to appreciate that Thika Road is under construction. When a road is under construction, the deviations have been created where traffic has been diverted to avoid the sections that are in progress. Ordinarily, the whole road would have been closed, so that it is constructed and then people come back on board. Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, the problem with this particular section is that there are speed limits that have been imposed for people to move slowly and to follow the diversions as created. However, because everyone is in a hurry, nobody wants to follow the signs and typically on the three lanes that have been created, at any one time, you will find five lanes that have been created by the motorists as they all try to overtake one another from different directions. They then create a gridlock at the bottleneck where they are supposed to get to the main road. We have been looking at all these things, but until the motorists learn to respect the signs, then the traffic jam will continue in that section."
