Elsewhere, this comes weeks after KeNHA launched a fresh crackdown targeting sugarcane transporters whose operations have been flagged as dangerous to road users.
In a statement on Sunday, November 23, KeNHA raised concerns over the growing trend of tractors transporting sugarcane at night without proper safety measures, warning that the practice continues to endanger motorists, pedestrians, and other road users.
"Sugarcane transportation aboard tractors continues to pose a grave safety risk to road users, particularly at night when visibility is low. Many of the transporting tractors are unroadworthy, often operating with faulty lighting systems and carrying bulky loads that extend beyond permissible dimensions. It is these conditions that significantly increase the likelihood of accidents," the statement read.
KeNHA revealed that its enforcement teams had already begun taking action.
According to the agency, one tractor had been intercepted on the Kisumu-Busia Road after officers noted that it was dangerously overloaded.
"The Busia Weighbridge mobile enforcement team, while on duty, intercepted one such tractor, KTCB 694W, on the Kisumu–Busia Road transporting sugarcane stacked to an unsafe height of five (5) metres, exceeding the legal limit of 4.2 metres," the statement added.
KeNHA noted that the crackdown is part of a sustained effort to enhance road safety and protect the country’s transport infrastructure.
"KeNHA reiterates that strict enforcement of traffic and vehicle load regulations is vital to protect road users and safeguard Kenya’s road infrastructure," the statement concluded.
