Construction of ultra modern weighbridges in Kenya nears completion



Ultra modern weighbridges in Kenya
National Highways Authority has announced that the construction of two ultra modern weighbridges in Kenya is at its final stages. The weighbridges are being constructed on either side of the Northern Corridor at Mariakani.

KeNHA Axle Load Manager in Charge, Muita Ngatia said that the US$ 7.3m weighbridges will be completed July.This he said was meant to give time for installation of electronomical equipment in either side of the road. Commissioning of the ultra modern weighbridges in Kenya is slated for August.

“We are happy with the progress. The works are so far being implemented as per the contract. We expect the project to be complete at the end of July. Commissioning will be in August,” Mr. Ngatia said.

Weighbridges to ease movement of goods and services


further he pointed out that the weighbridges will fasten the movement of goods and services along the Northern Corridor.

On the other hand, The Kenya Transporters Association says the weighbridges will ensure members are served better.

The Northern Corridor is one of the busiest and most important transport routes in East and Central Africa. It provides a gateway through Kenya to the landlocked economies in Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, Eastern DR Congo and Southern Sudan.

The foremost Northern Corridor transport network connected to the Port of Mombasacomprises of a road network and rail-lake transport.It also has inland water routes, container terminals commonly known as ICDs, Tororo Inland Port and an oil pipeline.

However, the alternative transport network that serves the landlocked Great Lakes Region is through the Central Corridor linked to Dar es Salaam.

Uber users will have the chance to enjoy free helicopter rides in Nairobi and Mombasa on September 4 as the company launches helicopter rides in the country.

In a statement on Wednesday, Uber said it has partnered with Corporate Helicopters to offer the services.

"Twelve lucky winners will have the opportunity to uniquely experience either the majestic Rift Valley from Nairobi or the calming coastline in Mombasa, with celebrities from each city," the statement read.

Uber launched its affordable taxi services in Nairobi in January 2015. The services have so far spread to Mombasa and Thika.

In June, the company slashed their prices by 35 per cent just as Safaricom launched its own online taxi-hailing app, Little Cab.

This sparked of a price war, with rivals Little Cab and Mondo Ride setting lower tariffs compared to their global competitor.

Little Cab, developed by local IT firm Craft Silicon, is charging passengers Sh55 per kilometre and Sh4 per minute.

The service also has no flat base charge or price surges during peak hours or traffic jams.

Uber charges in Kenya are priced at Sh60 for every kilometre covered and Sh4 per minute in addition to a base fare of Sh100.

The San Francisco-based taxi e-hailing giant also has price surges, where it increases rates by a multiple, say 1.5 times, in the event that demand cannot be met by the number of cabs in service

Those are few tarmac kilometers as compared to what we have in TZ. The only thing I agree is following their political reform putting KANU aside has brought out a lot of more postives

Tanzania is almost double the size of Kenya yet the number of paved roads pales in comparison when compared with Kenya.

The classified road network financed by the Roads Fund is about 87,581 km where only 8.7 percent equivalent to 7,611 Km is paved and 91.3 percent are unpaved and therefore susceptible to heavy rain.

The attachment shows breakdown of the entire road network and the state of pavement.

This pushed the total paved roads network to 13,000km last year, up from 11,230 in 2013 and 10,900km in 2010, according to the Economic Survey, 2015 released Wednesday.

“The total length of roads under gravel increased from 53,100km in 2010 to 63,100km in 2014 due to the adoption of the low volume sealed roads technology for road improvement and upgrading,” says the survey.
