21 Jan 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, whenever information is brought to our attention that the resident engineers have been compromised or, indeed, they are not going as per the terms of the contract, we have always taken action. I am confident that the resident engineers to be appointed for that particular road, being actually the second time we are awarding a tender for the same road, will, indeed, take into consideration the views of the hon. Member and, indeed, ensure that the work is done.

(a) I am aware of the accidents that have occurred at Githioro Corner on the Gitanga-Thika Road. To reverse that trend, my Ministry is in the process of installing road signs and distinct road markings to guide motorists. While my Ministry will do everything possible to rid the area of accidents, it is up to individual motorists to take extra care for their own safety.

21 Jan 2009 in National Assembly:
The drivers involved in the two fatal accidents cited were new in the area and, therefore, were unfamiliar with the risky conditions. Most of the accidents in the area occur at night and, hence, the need for motorists to be vigilant while using that section of the road. The Ndakaini-Gatanga Road is now under contract. All the works, including road signs and road markings for improvement of safety standards, will commence in mid-February, 2009.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is sad that we continue to lose lives of many Kenyans in road accidents and, indeed, we regret that. But I wish to state that the roads that I have indicated are under contract and that road markings and signs are part of the contract. The works are due to start in mid-February, 2009.

However, Mr. Speaker, Sir, we wish to warn motorists and, indeed, we will erect signs to that effect, that the road is slippery and dark in certain corners and, therefore, they should take the necessary caution while approaching those sections.
