High Court has closed a case in which the Ministry of Transport had been ordered to provide toilets and other sanitation facilities on highways.

This is after Principal Secretary Joseph Mbugua filed an affidavit saying that that they have established Roadside Stations (RSS) policy and regulations to address road safety, health and socio-economic development of surrounding areas along the country’s road network.

The PS, in court papers, says that Road stationers will provide for journey breaks and encourage rest for drivers.

He says that the development of roadside stations along highways is part of making highways smart, improving road safety and enhancing the wellness of drivers and travellers.

Ministry of Roads says that it has scheduled public participation forum for validation and collection of views from members of the public beginning September 19-27, before tabling in parliament for approval.

It has also developed draft regulations known as the Kenya Roads Roadside Stations Regulation, 2023 which are in compliance with the policy.

The Government also says it will partner with private investors for the development of RSS and also promote development of the roadside stations along major highways in the country to contribute towards making the highways smart transport and economic corridors starting with the northern corridor.
