Identify high-impact county road priorities
Use evidence and public consultation where improvements would deliver substantial benefits.
Better roads. Better connections. Stronger commerce.
A good road can change the economics of an entire community. In an agricultural county such as Nyeri, the condition of feeder roads can directly affect the cost of bringing produce to market. Agnes Kagure believes county road investment must be closely connected to people’s economic and social needs.
Use evidence and public consultation where improvements would deliver substantial benefits.
Serve agricultural production areas, collection centres, processing facilities, and markets.
Systematic grading, drainage maintenance, and repairs that protect road investments.
Consider roads serving health facilities, educational institutions, and underserved communities.
Integrate drainage, safer junctions, signage, and pedestrian considerations.
Pursue cooperation on roads outside the county government’s direct mandate.
Publish planned works, costs, contractors, timelines, and progress updates.
When roads work better, people and businesses gain more opportunities.
Road priorities must distinguish county roads from national roads and be supported by engineering assessments and approved budgets.
