The Nairobi Mombasa route is dominated by large buses and most of them depart at designated times. No waiting for the 50-seater thing to fill up.
what is so difficult for matatus to do the same?
Buses owned by large companies or rich men, serving a very busy route. Which bus company do u think will serve Londokwe n Doldol?? This move was the ultimate one, and probably, the best and most sustainable. Just ban 14 seaters in the city (Nairobi only) and problem is solved.
It is ridiculous and insane to even imagine a whole bus serving Gatunyu, Tangulbei or Suguta Marmar. The USA and European cities have THOUSANDS OF CABS/TAXIS plying their roads, ferrying 1 or 2 pax! Lest we forget.
