• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: TARMACKING OF TENGECHA-EMBOBOS- CHEBANG’ANG’-CHANGOI ROAD view
• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) The Tengecha–Embomos–Chebang’ang’ Road is currently under design. Once the design is completed, my Ministry will source for funds to construct the road. (b) The first phase of the road will cover Tengecha–Koyua–Cheptalal–Sotik– Chebang’ang’, which is approximately 35 kilometers. The exact cost of tarmacking this section of the road will be known once the design of the road is completed. view
• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, indeed, I want to confirm to the hon. Member that we had plans to complete the design works within this financial year, 2010/2011. However, there were some contentions on the alignment of the roads which delayed the scheduled completion. We are, however, optimistic that we will be able to complete it within the remaining three months, and subsequently within the first part of the next financial year, we will be able to advertise work on the said road. view
• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, that would be the position, if the funds were available. But as you know, given the high number of roads that are not tamacked compared to the funds available to the Ministry, we cannot give that kind of undertaking. However, it remains our desire that once road design work is completed, we should move on to awarding of the contract. view
• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, on the 13th of April, we gave an undertaking to this House to present the Roads Sector Investment Programme by my Ministry. We will table it here for hon. Members to examine and ask questions on the areas that have been chosen and the criteria used. One month after the 13th of April will be the 13th of May; between now and then, we will present it before the House. I think the question asked by the hon. Member will be addressed in that context. view
• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, in the last financial year, we allocated Kshs50 million for the design of this road, but the hon. Member of the area requested that half of that money be allocated for maintaining the roads in a motorable condition. We have allocated this money and the works are going on. I am aware that the quality of the work has been questioned by the hon. Member, but we are doing everything possible to ensure that the quality is in conformity with the contract we gave. view
• 26 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Speaker, Sir, I am not aware of any instructions to that effect. However, I wish to assure the hon. Member that we will investigate that particular contractor. If he is found to be going against the terms of the contract, action will be taken immediately. view
• 21 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. (a) The road in question is made up of two sections as follows:- view
• 21 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: (i) The Laisamis-Lemuroi Road - D371, is 131 kilometres long. The road is under the purview of the Constituency Roads Committee (CRC). My Ministry, through the Regional Manager, Marsabit, will, therefore, advise the respective CRC to prioritize the road for maintenance. view
• 21 Apr 2011 in National Assembly: (ii)The Lemuroi-Loyangalani Road - C77, is 80 kilometres long. My Ministry, through Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA), plans to carry out routine maintenance in the coming financial year to make the road motorable. (b) I am not able to say when the road--- view
