Nakuru County Government has installed speed bumps at the Salgaa shopping centre access road in Mosop ward that will help ensure road safety and enhance the overall well-being of the community.The County Engineer, Michael Kamau, said the initiative is expected to curb speeding, thereby reducing the likelihood of accidents, following the recent completion of the tarmacing of the road, marking a key development in the county's infrastructure projects.He noted that the installation of the bumps is set to be completed soon, providing a smoother and more efficient means of transporting farm produce to the market.Engineer Kamau said that road safety will also be improved by reducing the risk of accidents by slowing down speeding vehicles, especially for school-going children.The Salgaa area and the Ngata Bridge are marked as some of the blackspots in the county where a high number of accidents tend to occur frequently.Data from the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) reveals that between Janua ry and April this year, 7,198 people were involved in accidents in the country.Engineer Kamau said the NTSA data indicates a significant increase of 1,908 accidents compared to the same period last year.He noted with concern that while the improvement of infrastructure was meant to improve citizens quality of life, it's unfortunate that, in some cases, it tends to increase accidents.He urged motorists to follow the laid-down safety measures to become better and more competitive drivers by reducing the ever-increasing accidents along the Nakuru-Kericho highway.Source: Kenya News Agency
