Budget ya kupulizia hewa kwenye hii mifupa ya Mkoloni aliowaachia ingetosha kujenga latest sophisticated trams lakini serikali yenu imeshawatapeli tayari 😁😁😁

Zile tram za Hungary ziliishia wapi? 😆😆😆

Nairobi commuter rail a project funded by the world bank to the tune of $290 million has started taking shape . The start date of the service is October 2020. Here is a list of what has been done and what is still in progress.

Track
Already 160 km of 200 km of rail has been rehabilitated in phase 1. The portion that remains is the avenue park to embakasi station track.

Train stations
10 New train stations have been built at donholm, avenue park, embakasi,dandora,kikuyu,kibera,githurai, mwiki, Ruiru and Athi River.
The new train stations contain automatic ticketing and entry control systems that scan your ticket before you get access to the boarding platform.

Reclaiming Land From Trespassers

Kenya railways has already reclaimed 90% all the land on the commuter rail network from traders who had encroached onto the railway.
Recently demolitions of stalls, illegal matatu termini and illegal markets was completed along outer ring road especially around the location where Taj mall once stood.

Trains
Already 5 out of the 11 commuter DMUs ordered from spain have arrived and are being repainted and inspected at the Kenya railways workshops by Kenya railways engineers and ineco engineers from spain.

CAF the manufacturers of the DMUs completed an overhaul and refurbishment of the trains and have already signed contracts to supply spare parts for 25 years and also to share with Numerical machining Complex designs of parts that will be manufactured in Kenya.

The DMU has a capacity of 300 passengers complete with docking stations for bicycles and dedicated areas on board for wheelchairs for those with disabilities.

The DMU has a maximum speed of 100 km/hr but will probably be hitting an average of 80 km/hr all across the network. They also come equipped with an automatic stop system to remotely stop the train if the driver does not follow operators instructions.

Train monitoring and management

A new ATC (Automatic train control) is being installed for the commuter rail. The ATC is split into three parts, Automatic Train Protection (ATP), Automatic Train Operation (ATO) and Automatic Train Supervision (ATS). The ATS system is responsible for monitoring and controlling the rail system to ensure that it conforms to an intended schedule and traffic pattern in order to optimize railway operations and service reliability.

A new and modern commuter train monitoring centre at Nairobi central station is complete and awaiting launch of the service.

The new system will be able to accomodate the current higher speed of the commuter rail and also the future traffic once double tracking of the commuter rail is started.

Greening and Beautification of the corridor.

This is yet to begin but will take place after operations have started. Kenya railways plans to plant grass and to beautify the corridor once operations have begun.

Future
The future of the commuter rail is
i) Double tracking to increase capacity,
ii) An additional 7 km line from JKIA will be built.
iii) The service will be extended to Ruai, Kangundo and other areas of Nairobi metropolitan yet to be reached and 15 more stations will be built.
iv) Mombasa (259 km) and Kisumu commuter rails are also planned by GOK and the world bank. The world bank has already committed to fund to the tune of $400 million each commuter rail network in Mombasa and kisumu

Haka ni kale kareli kibaki alijenga(rehabilitate ) back in 2011. Kutoka tao kwenda syokimau na pale buru/ Hamza station.
There is nothing new here, bado ile track ya kwenda kibera ni mbaya na haina stations za maana.
Halafu bado ile ya kwenda Ruiru ( inapitia K.U) hata usiseme.
What is new is the 25 year old locomotives (DMUs) from spain.
There irony of it all is that that train after 8years does only 2 trips, 7 A.M to syoks & jioni 6pm to town.
Bado sana

Ah!! Bana kwani pesa ni ya babako mbona machungu hivyo?!!! Pesa iliwekwa kwa Commuter rail baada ya mazungumzo na world bank. Yani vitu kwa utaratibu sio kukimbilia na kushindwa kumaliza jinsi mmezoea nyinyi.

Nyamaza wewe hujui unachosema kama kawaida. Ujuaji halafu ujiaibishe hapa mbele ya watu wako. kwani the new 80 lb sleepers zinawekwa wakitoa zile za 50 lb mpaka hiyo ya kibaki ikangolewa zilitoka kwa bedroom yako?
Zungumza unachojua hii si soko ya machungwa na nyanya

That rail can only serve watu wa Mombasa road / Jogoo rd as it has always done. Though kuna ile ya kibich (gong rd) wajaluo hufinyana kama mambuzi wakienda inda kufanyia mhindi job. Mind you Thika Rd is the largest residential area that is totally ignored.
Matatu lazima, dirty uncivilized transport will continue to be the hallmark of the land of the drunk naked king

Lazima, nyinyi hamukopeshwi kwa sababu mtarudi kulia musamehewe. Ndiyo maana BRT phase 2 imekwama bado ni kale kilomita 21 pekee ndiyo kana fanya kazi.
Hivi tunavyozungumza World bank wamesema watatoa tena $400 million kutengeneza commuter rail ya Mombasa.
Hii ndiyo tofauti ya kuwa nchi inayoaminika kwa kulipa deni.

Hata standard chartered wameanza kufikiria mara mbili kuwapa hile mkopo ya $1.4 billion baada ya nyinyi kulia sana na kuomba word bank na IMF iwasamehe deni lenyu la Taifa.

I tell you always silence is golden, nobody will know you are a fool. Kibaki only built three stations syokimau, imara daima and Makadara and he never upgraded the line.
i) Kibera and kikuyu track rehabilitation to 80 lbs, rail realignment and stations were completed in 2020.
ii) Ruiru, Buru buru, Donholm,Dandora, embakasi, Athi river, Kenyatta University stations are complete including upgrading the Nairobi-Ruiru track and the Nairobi- embakasi track sleepers to 80 lbs.
iii) Nairobi-syokimau track sleepers upgraded in 2020 to 80 lbs.
iv) Upgraded signalling systems completed in 2020
v) Automated train control systems completed in 2020

Yani kwa kichwa yako Kibaki bado 2020 ni rais wa Kenya alafu Ruiru,Mwiki, Githurai, kibera, kikuyu ziko jogoo road? Nadhani kuna madawa umesahau kumeza.
