A total of 45 pedestrians have been arraigned in court after they were arrested for allegedly obstructing the free flow of traffic by failing to use the Nyayo Stadium footbridge along Mombasa Road.
In a statement, the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) said the pedestrians were arrested during an enforcement operation targeting unsafe road-crossing practices along the busy highway.
"A total of 45 pedestrians have been arraigned in court after they were arrested for willfully obstructing the free flow of traffic at the Nyayo Stadium footbridge along Mombasa Road," the authority said.
The latest arrests come days after 22 other pedestrians were arraigned for allegedly crossing the Thika Superhighway at Allsops instead of using a designated footbridge, signalling an intensified crackdown on pedestrians flouting traffic rules.
