Residents and business people in Thika Town have expressed concern over unmarked zebra crossings along major roads, warning that they pose a serious risk to lives.
According to the locals, key roads such as Kenyatta Highway, Kwame Nkrumah Road, and Uhuru Street have gone over a year without visible zebra crossings, putting pedestrians at risk as they navigate heavy traffic.
Some residents who spoke to us, led by Sammy Mwangi and Praxdies Ambiyo, said they gamble with their lives daily, as speeding vehicles rarely slow down in the absence of proper road markings.
