The guy who did Kiserian to Ngong road...if am not wrong Kirinyaga construction...the tarmac layer is like 2 inches....

Used the road recently, the done bit is fairly good (not to the standards of Rongo - Homabay) its only the remaining 22KM thats not good.

MATTAN CONSTRUCTION - The road contractor in Upper Hill beats them all hands down. Our office moved to Upper in Sept 2012 and this guy was on the ground digging trenches and doing excavation works , as at Jan 6th 2014 there is not an inch of tarmarc in place just the trenches. Bure Kabisa!

The guy doing the mail tisa to eldoret army barraks section in two years, he has only tarmacked 10 metres

the reason for poor shoddy work lies in how ministry of roads manages the contractors eg
1. how the contractor is selected/competency/experience for particular road works.
2. contract sum. Can the contract sum allow for good quality materials procurement ?
3. guidance and supervision form roads engineers i.e are the engineers enough and making proper supervision?

In most international contracts eg the chinese contracts, all the above are present hence better quality. If kirinyaga contractors are supervised well, with well funded contracts and employ experienced labour, their roads will be as good as chinese but kickbacks, low govt engineer staffing and poor quality staffing/labour ensures we get lower quality roads.
