There is a Special model of Bus Rapid Transit system expected in June. BRTs have specialised design, services and infrastructure to improve system quality and remove the typical causes of delay.
Written By SOPHIAH MUTHONI KENYA: The Nairobi County Executive for Public Works, Roads and Transport Evans Ondieki has announced that the county will be receiving the first batch of buses under the Bus Rapid Transit ( BRT) system by June this year. The project that is targeting 2000 buses in the city, will first receive 200 buses in a move meant to ease commuting within the county. Speaking to the Press, Ondieki said: “This new system will target local residents who cannot afford the ever fluctuating bus fares. With this new system, payment will be cashless and standard. It is a self-sustaining venture.” He however clarified that the introduction of the buses does not mean any other players in the industry will be side-lined.
