The Kenya Railways Authority issued warnings to all motorists in Nairobi about new updates in the transport system.

The Authority advised all motorists to be careful of the increase in train frequency, especially at the several railway crossing points, which may expose them to danger.

It also stated that both motorists and pedestrians who would be found vandalizing, driving or sitting on the refurbished infrastructure would be arrested.

“We hereby urge motorists and pedestrians to stay alert while crossing rail tracks and desist from competing to beat the oncoming train.

“Any one found sitting, walking, driving through, vandalizing or interfering with Railways infrastructure will be arrested and prosecuted in accordance with the law,” read the document in part.

The statement also warned the pedestrians and motorists to avoid lingering around railways because the train moves fast.

“Members of the public are urged to stay away from the railway line, and while crossing at the level crossings, please note that an oncoming train is nearer than you think and moving at a faster speed than you think,” Kenya Railways Authority stated.
