APRP1213FY.Pdf KENYA ROADS BOARD ANNUAL PUBLIC ROADS PROGRAMME FY 2012/ 2013 Kenya Roads Board (KRB) is a State Corporation established under the Kenya Roads Board Act, 1999. Its mandate is to oversee the road network in Kenya and coordinate its development, rehabilitation and maintenance funded by the KRB Fund and to advise the Minister for Roads on all matters related thereto. Our Vision An efficient road network for a prosperous Nation” Our Mission “To Fund, oversee and coordinate road development, rehabilitation and maintenance. We shall ensure prudent sourcing and optimal utilization of resources for socio-economic development.” KRB FUND KRB Fund comprises of the Road Maintenance Levy, Transit Toll and Agricultural cess. Fuel levy was established in 1993 by the Road Maintenance Levy Act. Fuel levy is charged at the rate of Kshs 9 per litre of petrol and diesel. The allocation as per the Kenya Roads Board Act is as follows: % Allocation Roads Funded Allocation Agency 40% Class A, B and C 9,992,000,000 KENHA 22% Constituency Roads 5,280,000,000 KERRA 10% Critical links – rural roads 2,400,000,000 KERRA 15% Urban Roads 3,600,000,000 KURA 1% National parks/reserves 240,000,000 Kenya Wildlife Service 2% Administration 488,000,000 Kenya Roads Board Roads under Road Sector 10% 2,400,000,000 KRB/Minister for Roads Investment Programme FOREWORD This Annual Public Roads Programme (APRP) for the Financial Year (FY) 2012/2013 continues to reflect the modest economic growth in the country and consequently minimal growth in KRBF. The Government developed and adopted Vision 2030 which identifies infrastructure as a key enabler for achievement of its objective of making Kenya a middle income country by 2030. The APRP seeks to meet the objectives of Vision 2030 through prudent fund management and provision of an optimal improvement of the road network conditions using timely and technically sound intervention programmes. The Kenya Roads Act No. 2 of 2007 established the three roads authorities which have become fully operational for the past two years. This is further proof of the government’s commitment to improving funds management and implementation of road works in the roads sub sector. The Constitution of Kenya 2010(COK 2010) seeks to further cement this commitment to provision of superior infrastructure through devolved structures. It is not clear, however, how this will affect the institutions set up under the Kenya Roads Act 2007 and subsequent maintenance of roads in the counties. This APRP assumes the status quo will prevail under the transitional arrangements. Kenya Roads Board (KRB) continues to seek ways and means by which the existing backlog of periodic maintenance and rehabilitation of roads can be tackled to bring the entire road network into a maintainable condition. The RSIP envisages an expenditure of close to Ksh. 130 billion annually on Roads which is above the annual road sub-sector allocation by Kshs 25 billion. In this regard the Board seeks to enhance the KRBF by expanding the revenue base in addition to the RMLF and to raise more funds through an infrastructure bond. These figures will continue to change taking into consideration the inflationary trends. It is projected that during FY 2012/2013, the Kenya Roads Board Fund (KRBF) may realise Ksh. 24,370,450,000 which will result from possible collections of Ksh. 23,880,450,000 from the proceeds of the Road Maintenance Levy Fund (RMLF), Ksh. 400,000,000 from Transit Tolls and Ksh. 90,000,000 from Agricultural Cess. In addition to these projected collections into the KRBF, the Government has allocated about Ksh. 99 Billion from the Exchequer to be applied towards road works. These funds still fall far short of the total requirement to bring the road network to a maintainable condition. The need for better roads, however, continues to be a priority for Kenyan road users. To achieve this, KRB is committed to ensuring that value for money is achieved through Technical Compliance, Performance and Financial Audits on all on-going road works activities. The Board acknowledges the immense support it continues to receive from the parent Ministry (Ministry of Roads), from development partners and from road sector stakeholders. This support ensures that as stated in Vision 2030, the objective of realising enhanced economic development in Kenya through an improved road infrastructure is achieved. Dr. Francis N.

IRB protocol # 14-0059 ii ABSTRACT Quandt, Amy Kathryn (Ph.D., Environmental Studies) Building livelihood resilience in semi-arid Kenya: what role does agroforestry play? Thesis directed by Professor J. Terrence McCabe Livelihoods must adapt to global and local changes in order to maintain livelihood resilience. Agroforestry is one potential livelihood activity which can help farmers adapt to changes and shocks. This dissertation explores if and how agroforestry is building livelihood resilience in the face of environmental and socio-economic shocks in Isiolo County, Kenya. Drawing from resilience thinking and political ecology, this research focused on general livelihood resilience, along with livelihood resilience to floods, droughts, violent conflict, and wildlife crop raiding. Field work was conducted in 2014-2015 in the communities of Burat and Kinna.

  • 2009 Trip Report KENYA
    KENYA and TANZANIA TRIP REPORT Sept 25-Oct 23, 2009 PART 1 - Classic Kenya text and photos by Adrian Binns Sept 25 / Day 1: Blue Post Thika; Castle Forest We began the morning with an unexpected Little Sparrowhawk followed by a Great Sparrowhawk, both in the skies across the main road from the Blue Post Hotel in Thika. The lush grounds of the Blue Post are bordered by the twin waterfalls of the Chania and Thika, both rivers originating from the nearby Aberdare Mountain Range. It is a good place to get aquatinted with some of the more common birds, especially as most can be seen in close proximity and very well. Eastern Black-headed Oriole, Cinnamon-chested Bee- eater, Little Bee-eater, White-eyed Slaty Flycatcher, Collared Sunbird, Bronzed Mannikin, Speckled Mousebird and Yellow-rumped Tinkerbird were easily found. Looking down along the river course and around the thundering waterfall we found a pair of Giant Kingfishers as well as Great Cormorant, Grey Heron and Common Sandpiper, and two Nile Monitors slipped behind large boulders. A fruiting tree provided a feast for Yellow-rumped Seedeaters, Violet-backed Starlings, Spot-flanked Barbet (right), White-headed Barbet as a Grey-headed Kingfisher, an open woodland bird, made sorties from a nearby perch. www.wildsidenaturetours.com www.eastafricanwildlifesafaris.com © Adrian Binns Page 1 It was a gorgeous afternoon at the Castle Forest Lodge set deep in forested foothills of the southern slope of Mt. Kenya. While having lunch on the verandah, overlooking a fabulous valley below, we had circling Long-crested Eagle (above right), a distant Mountain Buzzard and African Harrier Hawk.

  • Lake Turkana Archaeology: the Holocene
    Lake Turkana Archaeology: The Holocene Lawrence H. Robbins, Michigan State University Abstract. Pioneering research in the Holocene archaeology of Lake Turkana con- tributed significantly to the development of broader issues in the prehistory of Africa, including the aquatic civilization model and the initial spread of domes- ticated livestock in East Africa. These topics are reviewed following retrospective discussion of the nature of pioneering fieldwork carried out in the area in the1960s. The early research at Lake Turkana uncovered the oldest pottery in East Africa as well as large numbers of bone harpoons similar to those found along the Nile Valley and elsewhere in Africa. The Lake Turkana area remains one of the major building blocks in the interpretation of the later prehistory of Africa as a whole, just as it is a key area for understanding the early phases of human evolution. Our way had at first led us up hills of volcanic origin. I can’t imagine landscape more barren, dried out and grim. At 1.22 pm the Bassonarok appeared, an enormous lake of blue water dotted with some islands. The northern shores cannot be seen. At its southern end it must be about 20 kilometers wide. As far as the eye can see are barren and volcanic shores. I give it the name of Lake Rudolf. (Teleki 1965 [1886–95]: 5 March 1888) From yesterday’s campsite we could overlook nearly the whole western and north- ern shores of the lake. The soil here is different again. I observed a lot of conglom- erates and fossils (petrification).
