Now that you mention it. Always wondered what kind of monkey decided estern by pass should be a two way road and not dual
. It is no longer useful just a few years later.

People have to be paid to move out of road reserves.

That eastern bypass was designed by some goat/sheep. it's no longer useful, in the evening the jam stretches for km and u can rarely do 10km/h unless overlapping.

the government shud start thinking of making it dual carriage.

Na malenge wengine ni wale wanatengeneza barabarani ya kuingia thika town. How can a stretch of 1km take the contractor more than 3 months na bado ndio anapanga hardcore?

Remember this is a 3 year project, and only 1 year so far. But some considerable progress can be seen in the link skyscrapercity

Huyu ni politically connected Njuca. The people of Thika should physically remove the Contractor from the site. Hii barabara ni ya County ama ni ya KURA?

The road, which is actually class D, was designed in the 1970's and should have been built then. We all know what happened. We Kibaki came in, there was not even time for a re-design. A road had to be delivered pronto. You remember the Kangundo road mess and it's spill-over to Jogoo and Outer ring roads.

Let's be a little grateful for what we have. If we did not have this road, people in Eastlands would be shooting each other in traffic jams today. KENHA should however think of making the road dual urgently.

I of high opinion that GOK should form a department to deal with maintenance of roads only eg, fill potholes, rail guards, traffic lights etc, Kenha, Kura, Kerra should concentrate on new roads.
