Cartels have been blamed for the congestion of Nairobi Central Business District (CBD) congestion due to double parking allocation. Nairobi County Assembly Transport Committee Chairman James Mwangi on Tuesday said there has been a lot of disorderliness and insanity in the CBD, brought about by double parking. "The rate at which double parking especially along loading zones, on pavements and also in front of business premises is wanting," Mwangi said. The committee had invited matatu Saccos so that they can deliberate on how to manage the congestion within the CBD and explain why there is a lot of double parking from the Saccos. Over 100 matatus have been impounded in Nairobi on Thursday morning for illegal parking within the CBD.
