Accessibility of roads and airports for persons with disabilities
Question
First, what is the Ministry doing to ensure that when we build new roads, especially in urban areas, they are accessible to persons with disabilities and are also accessible during emergencies? Secondly, we have witnessed that in our port of entry – and I wish to single out the major one, namely, the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport – if you are coming home as a person with disabilities, you have to disembark and go round to where the planes are, while the engines are running, and enter the port of entry through the cargo area. What is the Ministry doing to make sure that it is possible for persons with disabilities to access our major airports and airstrips, where we only need a portable ramp?
