Have they been launched? which route will they operate on?

Will the idea of using 'swipe' cards fly with Kenyans?

I saw one today near Nyayo House with a 46 sticker on it. Not sure if that meant that it was a route 46. It was quite empty though.

Would quite handy actually...

Will it work? On route 46 for instance,alot of folk are on a daily wage,meaning that transport for the day is paid for by the earnings for that day. So will they invest minimum Ksh 100 for a smartcard covering several trips/days?

this country is just a load of bullocks. there's absolutely no comprehensive transport policy. you can actually buy 100 matatus tomorrow and inject them right on our roads and you won't be asked a single question by anyone. the transport supremo chirau mwakwere is himself a proud owner of several matatus which conflict with his role. and just wait till we are told who is behind the so called smart buses....must be one pot bellied mheshimiwa. sorry guys but in many ways we are stuck in stone age while being urged to recite that nonsense about being proud to be kenyan. what a load of tosh!
