Wache wafu waendelee kufurahia kama lile daraja llililokatika. Hii imetokea majuzi ujenzi wa SGR grade one ya Mchina, hata picha wakatuficha!Ahaaa haaa haaa.
Umesahau design building finance operate
Poleni sana wafiwa, hii habari sio nzuri kabisa, mkandarasi wa SGR hii lazima adhibitiwe, haiwezekani awe anajikagua yeye mwenyewe, itaendelea kuleta taabu sana...Wache wafu waendelee kufurahia kama lile daraja llililokatika.

IN SUMMARY
- The workers were constructing a bridge in the SGR project when the culvert collapsed and killed them.
- China Road and Bridge Corporation will cater for the funeral expenses and foot the medical bills of those who were injured.
Strong winds caused a culvert to collapse and kill two standard gauge railway workers in Maai Mahiu on Monday, Kenya Railways Corporation has said.
More than five others were injured and taken to hospital. The workers were constructing a bridge.
ACCIDENT
The railways agency also said the contractor, China Road and Bridge Corporation, will cater for the funeral expenses and foot the medical bills.
Kenya Railways MD Atanas Maina termed the accident “a terrible tragedy”.
In a statement sent to newsrooms on Friday, Mr Maina said the winds “caused the enforcement bars of the culvert under construction to collapse”, noting that investigations were ongoing to find out exactly how the accident happened.
“Our goal is to fully understand what happened and how we can prevent a similar tragedy from occurring in the future,” he said.
SAFETY GEAR
A worker at the site told the Nation on Tuesday that heavy rains weakened the section being constructed and that they did not have helmets and other protective gear at the time.
But Mr Maina refuted the claim about workers not having helmets.
“Since construction of Phase 1 of the project, [Kenya Railways has] strictly ensured the contractor abides to labour laws and safety procedures in all matters,” he said.
“Standard safety procedures have been laid down and the supervising consultant for the SGR project ensures that these are followed to the letter. Adjustments are made periodically to continue improving the safety of the employee.”
LEAVE
Besides catering for the medical bills of the injured, CRBC has been ordered by Kenya Railways to reorganise working shifts so that those affected by the accident are given time to recuperate.
Mr Maina said he has directed contractor to offer paid leave.
“Safety of our employees as well as passengers was, is and always will be our number one priority,” Mr Maina said. “The contractor will also initiate the compensation and claim process with the insurance providers.”
SAFETY COMPLIANCE
Another measure that will be taken after the accident is a safety compliance check on the sub-section offices of phase 2A of the standard gauge railway construction.
“The contractor will conduct a safety compliance check at all our sub-section offices to ensure that every section is adhering to the laid down safety procedures,” said Mr Maina.
Construction of the standard gauge railway from Nairobi to Naivasha is expected to pose several engineering challenges to the contractor as it passes through the Rift Valley, a feature that has many extraordinary landscapes.

Disaster in the making angalia nguzo zilivyo mbali Kati ya moja na nyingine! Upepo ushaangusha daraja!Poleni sana wafiwa, hii habari sio nzuri kabisa, mkandarasi wa SGR hii lazima adhibitiwe, haiwezekani awe anajikagua yeye mwenuewe, itaendelea kuleta taabu sana...
Wachina wanajulikana jinsi walivyozingatia masuala ya usalama mahala pa kazi.Billion $ project lakini mafundi hawana kofia ngumu.Wache wafu waendelee kufurahia kama lile daraja llililokatika. Hii imetokea majuzi ujenzi wa SGR grade one ya Mchina, hata picha wakatuficha!

Bullet train? Geza wacha kujiaibisha. Unajua vizuri hiyo yenu itakuwa electric passenger train kama ile ya Ethiopia. Hujasikia Wahabeshi wakiita yao bullet train eti kwa sababu inatumia umeme. Yenu itakuwa inakwenda kwa velocity ya 180 km/h na bullet train wakati inakwenda kwa velocity ya chini kabisa huwa inakwenda kwa 300 km/h. Hiyo yenu sio bullet train, waturuki waliwakamua pesa yote kwa kuwadanganya eti mnajengewa bullet train. Bullet train gani inakwenda kwa 180 km/h, hamna bullet train kama hio dunia nzima. Isitoshe, bullet train huwa haibebi mizigo na hio mkebe yenu nasikia itakuwa inabeba macontainer kutoka port, kwa hivyo hiyo sio bullet train, hiyo ni mikebe fulani kutoka Turkey. Ni hayo tu kwa sasafrom the two structures, one can easily single out bullet train SGR from mtambo wa gongo SGR!

Umeme wa SGR utatokana na gesi na hautaingiliana na umeme wa TANESCO. Grid ya SGR ni 25KVA.
