Nithi bridge redesign plan on course, Transport CS Murkomen tells leaders
Tharaka-Nithi Governor Muthomi Njuki explains a point to Transport and Infrastructure Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen in Nairobi on March 13, 2023.
Transport and Infrastructure Cabinet Secretary Kipchumba Murkomen has said that his ministry has started the process of redesigning the Nithi Bridge on the Meru-Nairobi highway to reduce road carnage.
Speaking yesterday at his offices in Nairobi after meeting Tharaka-Nithi County elected leaders led by Governor Muthomi Njuki, the CS said engineers are working on a design to straighten the section of the road and do away with the sharp corner at the bridge that is mainly to blame for accidents that have claimed many lives over years.
