I agree - can't understand whats cutting, and why there should be a jam at 9pm.

The longest I stayed in a jam was on Msa Rd from 9pm to 2am.
Yes, till 2 am. I have never understood exactly what happened and will clearly be seeking an explanation from St Peter at the Pearly Gates when the time comes. Some Kenyans are enterprising and did quick buisiness on that night - carrying a huge battery on a wheel barrow and restarting cars whose batteries had conked out for 50/=.

The biggest contibuter to the snarl up on Tom mboya and Murang'a road is the big Potholes right in the middle of the Globe round about right outside the entry to the Chinese site. It slows the traffic outflow on Thika road.

The city buggers & traffic police need to do something urgently!It's getting crazy.....we are headed the Lagos traffic jam way. I think I will get a chopper soon!

Imagine being sold a house in South C ati "It's located 4mins drive from the City Centre".....haha!They should add...."On Sunday mornings only!"

Kweli! Kwanza the guys selling houses hapo mlolongo say that it's '10 minutes from Nyayo stadium'. Mostly true - coz with moderate traffic you can be near there in ten minutes. Near enough to see Nyayo stadium, but passing it could take another 2 hrs. :)

At least lets appreciate the fact that the jams r 4a gud cause. Wacheni baro zijengwe.

Mimi pia ni kama Njunge. Thank the heavens for flexible working hours and work locations! Had even forgot what a jam felt like until I had to do some rounds the other day and almost died of frustration.

The metropolitan city-(if its ever to be) could actually decongest nai traffic

but on a positive side, you can efficiently utilise the 2+hrs stuck on traffic.
If driving, buy some audio books depending on your tastereally
If in a mathree u can really read or study
If walking-you'll save on ur gym membership

The joys of working outside Nairobi City, eh metropolitan, Capital City, East African Hub, whatever.

We need to move the city to Isiolo. The traffic is way too much. I won't even open the chapter on Thika Road...
