Kisumu city has changed for better by any standards. Over the last two months, vehicles and people driving into Kisumu city from those two directions have been forced to stay on the road for very many hours following traffic snarl up along that road. Should that Ahero bridge get blocked, its impossible to access or leave Kisumu town, which is very dangerous. Two bridges on the river will suffice and create room for more expanded access to the town through Ahero. This has happened on river Nzoia in Budalani sub-county, where in addition to Ruambwa Bridge, there is an additional bridge at Sigiri, which has greatly improved movement to within Budalangi.
