Faith Gitau","speaker":null,"content":"I note the views from Members that we not only need safe dual carriageways in our country, but more importantly, every part of Kenya should have roads. This is in agreement with the intention of the Motion, which is that as roads are being constructed, safe crossing areas and general road safety should be a major consideration. In this regard, I wish to note that central to the efforts to seek development through road construction and infrastructure projects is the safety of our people. Roads are not just a means of transportation, but also lifelines for families, businesses, and communities. However, those projects become sources of pain and loss when they lack essential safety features such as proper signage, pedestrian crossings, speed control measures and lighting. Development must never come at the expense of human lives. Therefore, I request that Members support this Motion and call upon the Government to ensure that all road projects, from planning to completion, are guided by strict safety standards with regular safety audits."},{"id":1576144,"url":"http://info.mzalendo.com/api/v0.1/hansard/entries/1576144/?format=json","text_counter":64,"type":"speech","speaker_name":"Nyandarua County, UDA","speaker_title":"Hon.

I would like to know whether this is a new trend and, if so, whether it is in order. Thank you."}]}
