Maseti maviri enhau akabuda pamusoro peRift Valley Railways, vashandisi vezvino njanji muKenya neUganda pasi pechibvumirano chenguva refu kubva kuhurumende mbiri idzi.
Kuuya kwemichina mitsva yekugadzira njanji, inonzi Ballast Tamper neBallast Profiler pachiteshi cheMombasa, yakatengwa nemutengo wemabhiriyoni matatu emadhora ekuUganda kana kuti inodarika US$3 miriyoni yakaenzana nayo kwakapembera zvikuru zuva rapfuura, apo midziyo yaiburutswa kubva kuchikepe ichienda kune imwe mahombekombe uye yakaiswa panjanji pachiteshi. Kukwanisa kudzoreredza track nekumhanya kwe1.25 km paawa, zvichienzaniswa nemamita makumi mana aripo nezvikwata zvebasa zvinogara zvichishandisa maturusi emaoko, muchina mutsva unotarisirwa kuvandudza zvishoma nezvishoma mamiriro eiyo track system muKenya neUganda. Vashandi veRVR parizvino vari kudzidziswa nezvekushandisa michina miviri iyi uye kutumirwa kunotarisirwa kutanga kwaKurume munguva pfupi yapfuura.
Gore rapfuura makiromita makumi manomwe pamutsetse weMombasa kuenda kuNairobi akavakwa patsva, pachishandiswa nzira dzemawoko, pane imwe nzvimbo iyo yakaverengera zvingangoita zvikamu zviviri muzvitatu zvekunonoka kwakasangana munzira, kwave kutocheka nguva yekufamba pakati pemaguta maviri nemaawa matanhatu. Kumwe kuvandudzwa, kunyanya pachikamu kubva kuNairobi kusvika kumuganhu weUganda uye kuKisumu kuchaunza mabhenefiti akafanana kune vanopinza uye nevatengesi kunze kwenyika vachishandisa njanji yekutakura zvinhu zvavo.
Rift Valley Railways, nekutaura kwavo, parizvino vakasangana nezvisungo zvemvumo yavo uye vakatara imwe nzvimbo yekutevedzera mushure meimwe, vachidzivirira mibvunzo pamusoro pekushanda kwavo uko kunobvumwa mumakore ekutanga kwaive pasi pezviyero apo Sheltam we South Africa yakanga ichiri kubatanidzwa isati yasundirwa kunze mukugadziridza vagovani.
Muchokwadi iyo yechipiri seti yenhau inotaura chaizvo kune izvo zvakare semukuru wechipiri wekambani mugovani, TransCentury, iyo inobata zvikamu makumi matatu nemana kubva muzana yemasheya, yakazivisa chinangwa chavo nezuro "kuchinja chinzvimbo chavo chekugovanisa" icho chakasara pasina mamwe mazwi kuti agare, kusiya wakavhurika mubvunzo wakakosha kana izvi zvichireva kuedza kuwedzera kana kuderedza kubata kwavo. Iyi mhando yemutambo wekufungidzira inotamba yakananga mumaoko eavo varikuda kudzima chibvumirano chekambani uye vari kungomirira chikonzero chakakodzera chekusundira ajenda yavo, kunyanya sezvo njanji nyowani yegeji iri kuuya uye njanji yakamanikana iripo inoonekwa. se "muparadzi" angangoita, anokwanisa kushanda nemutengo wakaderera zvakanyanya uye zvakanyanya kunatsiridza kumhanya panguva iyo njanji itsva inenge yagadzirira.
Kwaive kupopotedzana kwevagovani uko kwainyanya kupomerwa mumakore ekutanga echibvumirano chaive chatadzisa kambani kuzadzisa zvinangwa zvekudyara, kutakura zvinhu zvinotarirwa, kumhanya uye kuvimbika tarisiro uye mitsara yekugadziridza mitsara, zvichikurudzira kufona panguva iyoyo kudzima chibvumirano, nguva iyoyo isati yasvika. kambani yekudyara Citadel yeEgypt yakauya, ndokuzoisa manejimendi matsva kubva kuBrazil nekutanga shanduko mushure mekutanga kwakashata pasi pekutonga kweKenya.
Kunze kwemabasa ekutakura zvinhu, kupera kwegore rapfuura akawedzera kusvika kuguta reGulu kuNorthern Uganda mushure mekugadzirisa njanji mushure memakore anoda kusvika makumi maviri ekuora, RVR inoshandawo katatu vhiki nevhiki masevhisi echitima pakati peNairobi neMombasa uye zvichipesana.
ZVOKUBVA MUNYAYA INO:
- This sort of guessing game plays directly into the hands of those wanting to cancel the company's concession and who are just waiting for the right reason to push their agenda through, especially as the new standard gauge railway is coming up and the narrow gauge existing railway seen as a potential “spoiler,” able to operate at substantially lower cost and largely improved speeds at the time when the new railway will finally be ready.
- Kwaive kupopotedzana kwevagovani uko kwainyanya kupomerwa mumakore ekutanga echibvumirano chaive chatadzisa kambani kuzadzisa zvinangwa zvekudyara, kutakura zvinhu zvinotarirwa, kumhanya uye kuvimbika tarisiro uye mitsara yekugadziridza mitsara, zvichikurudzira kufona panguva iyoyo kudzima chibvumirano, nguva iyoyo isati yasvika. kambani yekudyara Citadel yeEgypt yakauya, ndokuzoisa manejimendi matsva kubva kuBrazil nekutanga shanduko mushure mekutanga kwakashata pasi pekutonga kweKenya.
- Able to restore the track at a speed of 1 kilometer per hour, compared to the current 40 meters by regular work gangs using manual tools, the new machinery is expected to progressively improve the condition of the entire track system in Kenya and in Uganda.
