Trans Nzoia County’s Road CEC, Jackson Wamboka, commissioned new sections of infrastructure, including culverts and roads, on Wednesday evening, marking a significant step towards improving the county’s accessibility and safety.
“The infrastructure will enhance accessibility, improving drainage and ensuring road safety,” Wamboka said at the commissioning event. He emphasized that the new facilities would not only open up the county but also ensure that residents could easily move their products and services to the market, fostering economic growth and community development.
The project, implemented under the leadership of Governor George Natembeya, is expected to contribute significantly to the overall development and resilience of the county’s infrastructure. Joseph Wasike, the Chief Officer for Roads, echoed these sentiments. “This project is a testament to our commitment to improving the lives of our residents by providing them with safe and accessible roads,” Wasike said. “We are confident that these improvements will have a significant impact on our county’s development and resilience.”
Wasike assured residents that the administration will continue to prioritize infrastructure development to facilitate economic growth and improve the quality of life for its residents. “We are dedicated to ensuring that our infrastructure meets the highest standards to support the needs of our growing population,” he added.
Trans Nzoia County residents have welcomed the new infrastructure, expressing optimism about the potential benefits. Improved access to markets and enhanced road safety are among the positive outcomes anticipated by the community. The new roads and culverts are expected to make transportation easier and safer, reducing travel time and improving the overall efficiency of goods and services movement within the county.
Governor Natembeya’s administration continues to focus on strategic infrastructure projects that promote sustainable development and enhance the well-being of all residents. This latest initiative is part of a broader effort to build a resilient and prosperous Trans Nzoia County, ensuring that infrastructure development keeps pace with the county’s economic and social needs.
