Was at University Way before 7 am and it was already choked. I wonder how bad it will get at 8 am? Business opportunities are like buses,there's always another one coming

If that's the case then it will be a disaster. Can't see any disaster there. A cop kept us on Haile Selassie avenue near Wakulima the other day for thirty minutes inspite of the fact that the traffic lights were working. Why then don't we donate those lighting poles to scrap metal dealers who love them so much if we have no use for traffic lights? Waende!!! Boss it will be a disaster unless we have tight rules that will ensure that guys dont jump the lights....we have some uncouth,indisciplined drivers out there...the lights are red someone behind you is honking and flashing his lights. I think a cop with a motorcyle should be stationed at each of the roundabouts/junctions with the traffic lights to monitor and arreast those who jump the traffic lights Just make it painful enough just like we have made drunk driving.

You need to devolve yourselves In the business world, everyone is paid in two coins - cash and experience. Take the experience first; the cash will come later - H Geneen

Reform the public(or is it the private?) transport sector You need to realize that the biggest cause of the PSV mess is traffic Jam. Deal with this, half the PSV problems will be gone- there will be no more overlapping, fare hikes etc. In my rural, and the many rural towns I have been to, PSV transport is very well organized. Ever noted how orderly these guys become in the dead of the night when traffic is near zero? Several Indian cities have more than 3 times the population of Nairobi, with massive numbers of bikes, tuk tuks, pedestrians n numerous tiny cars.......how comes traffic seems to flow almost continuously? 1. Redesigning our roads as a matter of urgency...... 2. Discouraging use of private cars. TULIA.........UFUNZWE!

The only solution is rail and making busses. Making public transport reliable and efficient like in Europe. I remember when I was younger the basses were scheduled and you'd at least get one every 10 mins guaranteed. Before that it was every half hour. They should create lanes that should only be used for public transport.
BBI will solve it :)

Problems can get out of proportion, and not only in the wee small hours. Don't let the problems eclipse the Master. Let the Master eclipse the problems.

I happened to be on Juja road recently and noticed most of the entire stretch of that road, right from Outer Ring road, has woefully inadequate bus stops, most of which can barely accomodate 2 minibuses. Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.
