Nairobi. Tanzania has on Wednesday, April 19, sent a delegation from the Tanzania National Roads Agency (Tanroads) to visit the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) on a benchmarking exercise of the Sh1.76 trillion (Ksh88 billion) Nairobi Expressway, Kenyan media has reported.

In a statement by KeNHA, the delegation sought to find out ways of implementing private-public partnership projects.

In particular, the team was impressed with the expressway's construction and operations and pursued means of implementing such a project in their country.

"The team later visited the Nairobi Expressway and learnt about its construction and operations for possible implementation

A delegation from the Tanzania National Roads Agency visited the Kenya National Highway Authority (KeNHA) office on April 19, 2023.

"The iconic Nairobi Expressway is the lates road infrastructure project in Kenya which provides viable transportation solutions and has decongested the city among other urban areas," the statement read in part.

This comes two days after Tanzania reportedly sent another delegation from the National Defence College (NDC) to learn about Kenya's multi-agency approach to security management.

The team was received by Interior Principal Secretary Raymond Omollo who took them through the exercise.

"Led by Brig. General Rutambuka, the delegation paid a courtesy call on (Interior) PS Omollo who took them through Kenya's multi-agency approach to security management, which has been crucial in tailoring proactive responses to various security threats, including crime and terrorism," the statement read in part.

The expressway was built by China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) on a Public-Private Partnership (PPP) model for a total cost of Ksh88 billion.

Through the model, the Chinese company will be in charge of the road for 27 years to recoup its money before transferring it to the government. This means that the company will only be setting aside a fraction of the money earned for the operation and maintenance of the road.

The elevated road was a litmus test for the government to test the PPP model for funding capital-intensive projects.

Hiyo hua ni kawaida kama deligation ya kenya ilivofika Tanzania kujifunza BRT ni nini hakuna ajabu
 

Mradi wa BRT ni mabilioni ya shilingi Kenya msingeweza kuujenga ndio maana mkaishia kuchora vimistaristari barabarani, ile modal ya BRT kwa Tanzania watu wanajaa vile sababu route nyingine ndio kwanza wanamalizia ujenzi, halafu uendeshaji anapewa mtu binafsi asimamie walipokosea ni kutaka serikali ifanye biashara direct, lakini ikipata msimamizi mbona ni bonge la mradi tu maana kila siku wanaingiza mapato ghafi zaidi ya dollar laki tano za kimarekani,
 
Nchi moja kwenda kujifunza kwa wenzao hua ni kawaida nakumbuka Tanzania ilipoanzisha bodi ya mikopo ya elimu ya juu walifika kenya kujifunza pia namna bora ya ureheshwaji wa mikopo hivo kama nchi hauwezi kua vizuri kila sehemu lazima kuna sehemu utakwenda kujifunza hata kwa majirani, kama sudan kusini walivyopita karibu nchi zote east africa kujifunza mamlaka za mapato zinafanyaje kazi na hiyo ilikua baada ya uhuru wao
 
Ni nini point yako? Mbona unaonekana kama umechukizwa na hii thread na unajihami? Kama unajua nchi moja kwenda kujifunza kwa nchi nyingine ni kitu cha kawaida mbona unasumbuka ku post vitu vinavyoonyesha kuwa unasumbuka moyo? Tulizana. Tanzania kwenda nchi nyingine kuangalia ili kujifunza siyo jambo la aibu. Limekuwepo tangu tupate uhuru. Na Tanzania pia yanakuja mataifa mengi tu kujifunza kutoka kwetu. BTW kitu cha muhimu kwenye hii thread ni kuwa serikali za nchi za kiafrika zinajiona haziwezi kufanya lolote bila kusaidiwa na mataifa ya kigeni. Mpaka kuendesha barabara tunajiona hatuwezi na tunaingia ubia.
 

Hapo mlibugi sana na kuwatesa wananchi, kwa kweli mngetumia busara kwanza, halafu vipi SGR kale ka-piece ka Dar-Moro kalikua kaanze kutumika 2019, mpaka sasa naskia ni danadana tu, nilisoma ripoti ya CAG nikawahurumia sana.
