Matatus going into CBD is not the issue, the issue is the matatus parking or waiting in town, ie the jam along Ronald Ngala of githurai buses already dropped passengers but waiting untill they are full again to leave the stage, look at no 9 or 6 buses they line up blowing black smoke waiting to board passengers, during the day it takes about 25 minutes for each to fill up mean while the rest are waiting in line, see kencom also.
For Mombasa buses and upcountry they arrive inthe morning park in the cbd all day to leave at night, Accra road is full of empty parked matatus waiting .
Another issue is parking on yellow lines at junctions, instead of solving this issues we ban matatus but lower parking fee for private cars.
