My undergraduate research was about the number of vehicles per hour (capacity) and amount of time vehicle gets in, carries passengers and leaves (dwell time) . I have a full report made through sweat and blood ๐Ÿ˜…๐Ÿ˜…
I've always been angered by how slow movement is in Bus Station, so today I decided to do an aerial survey and count the number of matatus that use it.

MULTI-SECTORAL ENGAGEMENT ON BUILDING SAFETY & COMPLIANCE ACEK joined leaders from across Kenya's built environment and construction sectors at a multi-sectoral stakeholders' meeting convened by the National Construction Authority (NCA) today at its headquarters in Upper Hill, Nairobi. ACEK was represented by our President, Eng. Jabongo, and Council Member Eng. Aluoch. The meeting focused on recent developments, including the Eastleigh building collapse, and ongoing compliance challenges, particularly in Nairobi. Our thoughts are with all those affected by the collapse. Tackling this menace will take a collective effort, and ACEK remains committed to working with NCA and other industry partners to promote safer, compliant construction across Kenya. #BuildingSafety #BuiltEnvironment #ConsultingEngineers #ACEK #NCAKenya

Bollards are a very key player in urban roads where the narrow right of way is shared by both motorists and non-motorists
This happened earlier today in Muranga town. Wtf meen!

Watu huku nje tunajoke sana na life ya watu wengine. Who approves these buildings before being constructed? Imagine kuanza mjengo kama hii alafu after few years unaambiwa ubomolewe. Na hiyo time ulikopa loan hata hujaanza kulipa ndio tenants wameanza kuingia. Hii building iko na more than 90 tenants na huko Riruta Satellite along Kaberia Road. Hapa mimi nitablame wenye huauthorize such buidlings kujengwa knowing very well wanatumia substandard materials. Wewe utablame nani ?
