Transport CS James Macharia has said Nairobi lacks adequate space for a bus rapid transit. But he said the ministry intends to adopt the Nairobi Metropolitan Area Transport Authority, which will address issues concerning public transport. The CS attributed the problem to poor planning of the city, saying it does not have a dedicated lane for buses. Among the projects set to resolve traffic congestion are the commuter rail and expansion of various roads in the city. The first phase is from City Mortuary to Nakumatt Prestige, and the second phase is from Prestige to Dagoretti corner through to Karen.
