• 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: (a) I am aware that the Wote-Katumani Road is in need of repair. view
• 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: (b) I have instructed the regional manager of the Kenya National Highways (KENHA) Lower Eastern, to address the issue and I can confirm that already the site- patching of potholes has already commenced. We have allocated Kshs1.5 million this financial year and a further Kshs4.5 million in the next financial year for the same road. view
• 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I appreciate the fact that the bridge is in need of repairs and we are considering it under the emergency repairs. As soon as those funds are available we will confirm to the hon. Member. However, as I speak, it is on our priority list, pending funding. view
• 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, it is not in the Budget. We did not budget for it but we want to consider it under emergency funding. The bridge requires emergency repairs and we would like to treat it as such. view
• 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: I may not be able to give an immediate answer right now, but I would be able to confirm to the hon. Member as soon as the contractor is awarded the tender to do it. view
• 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, I am not too sure I got the hon. Member’s question, but I want to assure him that we have a fully-fledged department that deals with bridges in this country. However, as you know, because of the terrain in this country, we have too many bridges and not sufficient funds to maintain them at all times. However, we will prioritise it on the basis of available funding. view
• 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as the hon. Member maybe aware, for a very long time the allocation in the Budget for the Ministry has been very small. Until recently when the Budget was raised, it was not possible to have regular maintenance of the bridges. However, with that increased funding it would be possible to include regular maintenance of bridges in our regular maintenance programmes. I want to thank the hon. Member for asking this Question because we have done a survey of most of the bridges and found that, indeed, many are in dire need of maintenance. view
• 23 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Temporary Deputy Speaker, Sir, as I have indicated, we have about Kshs6 million allocated to this road. As I speak now the contractor is already on site to do the patch work. We will continue to do regular maintenance but that will always be subject to availability of funds. view
• 22 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: Mr. Deputy Speaker, Sir, I beg to reply. view
• 22 Jun 2010 in National Assembly: (a) My Ministry could not re-carpet the road because the design of the road had not been finalised. The final detail design for the road is expected to be finalised by the end of July, 2010. view
