Proud of everyone who is part of the project, good job.

👍👌🇰🇪 - KENYANS are HARDWORKING PEOPLE. They work Well with the Chinese. I Saw in ANGOLA Only CHINESE People Working while Angolans are in their HOMES doing NOTHING.Why? I don't know.Why.❎ 👉🇰🇪☻ - These Kenyan Men & Women will be in KONZA CITY building that CITY. KUDOS TO THE HARDWORKING KENYANS.👍👌✔👏

As a Kenyan im proud of my country and the Matatu sector and moreso with the contribution it has and continues to make in our transport sector..However they have to come to terms with the fact that times are changing and competition is nigh that is much more structured and organized.That said i still think the former still has a role to play but have to change tact esp attitude wise.

FUTURE GAMES AT KASARANI WILL BE PACKED!! THINK OF LONDON ON A WEEKEND!! FANS AND ALL! PRETTY SURE WILL BE ABLE TO HOST MORE GLOBAL EVENTS!

Great project … same project in my country Egypt

Move on our beautiful Kenya 🇰🇪 to greater heights.

This is a great piece. Pitch this doc to one of the leading TV stations in Kenya and get good money.

Fantastic documentary Kenyan Historian. You've earned yourself a loyal subscriber from here on out. Here are a few projects that you could potentially look into: 1. Proposed Nairobi Railway City. 2. Konza City 3. Lappset corridor. 4. Kenol Sagana Marua road. 5. Mau Mau road.

at 22.49, this guy who lives in Huruma and lets his goats wander across the road to GSU area. He has been doing this for years. I grew up seeing goats from Huruma crisis cross the highway. It is now a super highway and with a BRT coming on board. That man (or woman) needs advice on how to manage his/her livestock in the city. Same for Maasais who bring their cows on Ngong and Mombasa roads. Not forgetting hawkers using pedestrian walks and side roads for business. Times have changed and so should they. But hey, A VERY INFORMATIVE AND WELL PACKAGED HOMEGROWN DOCUMENTARY. This is our 'National Geographic' for our infrastructure. May all Governors from Mombasa, Kisumu, Eldoret and Nakuru see how to transform their cities and not wait to get too crowded before they re-plan their roads. Above all, let's us ensure cleanliness in our cities. And when our cities are clean, avoid saying 'it is like a European city', coz you are out of order. Cleanliness is next to godliness and has no color.

Great reporting. The workers seems to be using inefficient tools. They need automated tools as well as real harnesses for safety those ropes are not good enough. I am in Construction BUSINESS some of these tools they are using are not efficient obviously the Contractor is responsible for supplying the correct tools to the workers. I do however, admire the hard work these workers show just being let down by the Contractor in an effort to safe more money for their profits.

Thika road was constructed without plans for brt. Brt was an afterthought. Fitting it in includes deforming and robbing thika road it's former beauty and shape. It also weakens the foundational strength of T.R if not properly executed. I will miss the green grass that was btn the roads. Anyway I blv BRT benefits outdo the few negative aspects. Kudos!

Hate these bridges setup in the middle of a highway. They'll only add up traffic jam in an already congested highway. Besides, Thika road is literally back to it's oldself... two way lane. Meaning more traffic at peak hours. They should've installed electric buses instead. BRT buses will only bring more congestion. These designs should've been considered before building the actual highway. Thika road will become the new mombasa road. Hectic jam, confusing lanes and more congestion. Especially at pick-up stations.

Informative but are they saying BRT is not for the aged & differently abled people but only those who can walk up the stairs?

@KenyanHistorian

2 жыл бұрын

Nope. Actually It will have provisions for PLWDs. Watch part of the BRT dream dropping next week Bernard.

The Idea is good in principle but practically it will creat more congestion on the road due to closed lane. The exit routes for brt buses will also not work well. Brt lane should have been put on service roads with bridges on where service lanes touches a roundabout. We have better designers if only they could be given a chance
