Council urges residents to use flyovers

The Council has noted with regret the shunning of flyovers by pedestrians which puts their lives at danger.

The Council erected a number of flyovers in the City especially at accidents prone spots. However, the utilization of the facilities has not been impressive.

“We are not impressed with the way people use all the flyovers in the City,” says the Council’s Public Relations Manager Anthony Kasunda

“We urge people to make full use of the flyovers. Parents should sensitize their children on the importance of using the flyovers as it is mostly school kids that are hit by vehicles under these structures,” he says.

He says plans are there to build a hand rail around some flyovers especially the Ginnery Corner one so that everyone will be forced to use the facility.
