And how will wagons designed to run on Standard gauge operate on our colonial meter-gauge?

Ati they are still to decide whether to drill a hole/underground or to build an overpass across mombasa road to JKIA.It will cost 3.6 billion for underground while an overpass will cost kindu 1.6 billion.

Now with proximity to Mombasa road of the Sio Kamau station how will they achieve this?

If this project works, it will ease the pressure on the roads to a great extent, but it seems very ambitious!
The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.

If only development was measured by the number of castles you have built in the air, we are very good at it.

Has the government gone on a spending spree to the extent they have become irrational and impatient.

Building all these castles is a one time job, maintaining them is a life time job. I fail to see how the issue of sustainability is addressed in all this "growth" related projects.

Hmmm...sounds like a viable argument that would explain why all these projects are mushrooming all over the place.

While there's nothing wrong with development, there are concerns that someone is forcing the economy to bite more than it can digest.
