21 Jan 2009 in National Assembly:
Mr. Speaker, Sir, it is, indeed, true that when we give contracts to do roads, road markings and signs are part of the contract. But you are aware that there are certain roads that have been there for 20 years and the markings take about two, three or four years to be done afresh. So, I think the Ministry will ensure that road signs are put where they are supposed to be. All the new contracts will actually include the necessary road markings.

Mr. Speaker, Sir, it has been the Ministry's policy to discourage the use of bumps. We have been trying to have smooth flow of roads, but as soon as you do so, the first thing is, of course, many accidents setting in.

11 Dec 2008 in National Assembly:
My Ministry is in the process of installing light concrete guardrails on the section of the said road to enhance safety of motorists and other road users. However, it should be noted that, previously, metal guardrails have been installed along this section of the road, but have been vandalised soon after. The Provincial Roads Engineer, Coast Province, has already started the pre- casting of the light concrete guardrails and they should be in place by early next year. The whole exercise is estimated to cost a total of Kshs8 million. Further, I wish also to note that since the increase ...

You will recognise that, that is definitely a very different Question from the Question that has been asked. Nevertheless, we are looking at ways of decongesting this section of the road. Before long, my Ministry will be coming up with a Blue Print to open up other ways to decongest this section of the road.
