This is what they r doing, I tell u from the structure in the clip and my experience, neither escalator nor elevator is to be included! The issue here is those who can't afford other means of transport and are disabled!
BTW this design is to take at least 5 lanes of ur superhighway! see the sapce left from the parked buses on the concrete lane!
Kwani ushasahau tumeanzia mijadala wapi?
Tulianzia hapa Moses Wetangual being quoted akisema garama ya expressway imekua inflated from ksh20B to Kes60B.
Ndo nikakueleza kwamba hio Barbara ya mombasa road, initially ilikua inafaa kua flat road ambayo ni Barbara iliopo pale mombasa road ingepanuliwa na kuongezewa lanes including BRT... Hio ndo ilikua simple project ya 20B. Lakini baadae walifutilia mbali hio mipangilio na hizo render zake...
Badala ya hio flat road expansion, wakaamua kujenga hii elevated expressway ambayo ni madaraja matupu na inaacha Barbara ya chini ibaki. Haya madaraja matupu ndo yanaongeza gharama ya ujenzi. Mi nakuelezea kwanini gharama ilipanda... I did not mention Thika highway BRT, wewe ndo ulianza kulinganisha hizo render za Mombasa road BRT na Thika road BRT ambayo inajengwa .
Render zote nilizokuonyesha ni proposals za Mombasa Road, not Thika road.

Ur problem is u yap too much about viaducts as if u r the first country to build them or for that case u invented them anyways Kenya is fond of being dupped and passionately diffending the vice with no single iota of shame!

It will take 2 lanes not 3.

za kwenye electrical SGR r more than enough! 2.5 km in Dar, +440 m in Kilosa to connect the 4 tunnels and around 1 km in Dodoma city! na probably some in lot 5 Mwanza-Isaka electrical SGR!
FYI kwa Kenya, mpaka kufa kwako Kenya haitawahi kuwa na mifumo ya umeme kwenye "SGR yenyu"!

Can you tell me on what basis are you able to put the two roads on the same sentence an compare them. Give like five good points on why you chose to compare Nairobi expressway with Montenegro's so called highway to nowhere.

You're actually shooting your reasoning in the foot.
1. Kenya's expressway is 27km long, not 20.4.
2. The road you quoted is in a rural area, Kenya's expressway traverses the core of the busiest urban area in East and Central Africa.
3. $1 billion is equal to KES 107 billion. This means the road you quoted cost KES 2.6 billion/km. Kenya's expressway cost 2.22 billion/km.
4. A very tiny section of the Bar-Boljare highway is actually elevated. Most of it is on ground.

Don't forget the one one in Montenegro is a 2×2 highway while the one in Nairobi starts as a 4×4 highway but then becomes a 6×6 as you start getting closer to town!
So if you were to convert the roads into 1×1 lane the Montenegro one would be 41 * 2 = 82km long while Nairobi expressway would be at least 27 * 4 = 108 km long.
