Yup. I wonder how much it would cost by laying out two simple extra lanes up to pirates, or mtwapa bridge. And I mean simple, as a first aid measure, since the road has relatively flat shoulders that wont need much earth moving.

Naturally yes. mombasa wanakwamakwama tu sana.

Mombasa wow I wonder what tourist come to see maybe its the weather..
bad roads
stagnant water on major roads
sewer smell all over town
garbage heaps all over
hawkers all over town
mombasa is one big downtown
blocked roads
beach road
jam
nkt cant finish this
at least I can see some work going on in most places plus garbage getting collected, joho bought 20, 40 foot trailers for that and 2 shovels, Kisauni road is being repaired and storm water drainage works going on in Bamburi and Kiembeni areas, but still I think those Bombolulu area of the highway should be cleared

Go easy on Joho the guy is trying
the biggest blunder are some dunderheads he has for county assembly and cabinet

Mombasa's problems are historical and so deep rooted that it'll require more than national effort to resolve wacha story za county. and by Mombasa I Include adjacent counties of Kilifi, Kwale, Taita Taveta,Tana River and Lamu yaani the entire coastal strip.

1.Mombasa has no sewer system Septic tanks and pit llatrines are the norm

2. Water situation is extremely bad. majority of residents rely on boreholes, dont ask whether this mixes with 2 above. Thankfully under some grant from I think the French the water services board sijui company are digging up the whole town to lay new piping Machiri are the contractors. Inshallah things shall improve

3. Due to poverty and rural urban migration worsened by lack of physical planning /zoning and controlled, development Mombasa is one huge slum picture it, Entire Kisauni, Bombolulu, Bamburi to Utange, Likoni, Port Reitz Magongo Migadini, Entire Changamwe -Miritini, formerly planned Mikindani now a jungle, the adjacent boarding town of Mtwapa total chaos look at Shanzu

there used to exist two elite neighbourhoods Nyali and Kizingo and maybe Tudor but with lack of planning dezoning Pirate money the hitherto pristine addreses are now degenerated into concrete jungles

Traffic - dont even get me started, it is like Mombasa Police did not graduate from Kiganjo the .lately Drivers are like monkeys in suits

4.@ Essky please don't joke with Kongowea, dirty as it may be if you close Kongowea for a day or two hiyo itakuwa hujuma. The entire metropolis and the smaller retail markets depend solely on this one chaotic marikiti

5. Lets pray for watu wa pwani ni wangwana na watulivu tafadhali taratibu msije na haraka kama ulikuwa na haraka basi ungekuja jana

P.S the town needs radical restructuring, redesign and rethinking

an alternative to the Nyali bridge is 10 year late.

thank God the ferry mess shall be partly sorted once Dongo Kundu bypass is done but wait a minute - Makupa causeway Kibarani still remains the link road nktest goodnite

@thimioni on the contrary Mombasa has failry decent roads what has happened is population has exploded and middo crass bought too many cars than the town can handle.

Now the following needs to be done on roads

1. Dualing the New Nyali Rd (Msa-Malindi rd B8) from Kisauni junction to Mtwapa ok at leat till Bamburi junction as phase 1

2. Second alternative to Nyali Bridge

3. A bypass from Mshomoroni to changamwe or better still linking C107 to Mazeras

4. Makupa Causeway Kibarani Expansion

5 use of waterway (ferry/boats) from Kilifi Mtwapa to Old Town speedboat to Port Reitz

6. Dongo Kundu iharakishwe

Kwa raha zetu Mombasa is an Excellent town challenges notwithstanding crime tu ndio inaongezeka lakini tutawasomea halbadiri
