I always knew something was 'missing' in the urban lay-out of Puntland cities. It's not just 'side-walks' which is a big issue and I covered what can solve that in a previous topic by getting our hands on a 'bricklaying machine'. Mogadishu has done it already and it looks great.
The machine that can do it is here and it's very cheap. So there is no excuse for any region and it speeds up development very fast. 12k a piece. You can get 50 neighborhoods and side-walk done in a month quick easily. I prefer brick over cobblestone, u can clearly see how mogadishu lane-way looks far more superior to 'cobble stone of baydhabo'.
But back to my original intention of the thread. I noticed this recently in Garowe, they are starting to do 'road curbs', this is great addition to our roads, the curbs provide a 'city feel' and 'organized' look. Have a look here.
You can see it at the 0:26 mark and constantly repeated over the video
It looks good I think and the great thing it can be done super-fast and cheap. It's only 8k investment
Imagine all our streets in PL had these beautiful 'kerbs' and inside the side-walk and neighborhoods we had brick-lane-way. Wallahi the city would look totally amazing, we invest so much in silly hotels when a small investment in urban city tools do far more to beautify the city then a hotel. I urge PL to grab these babies and lead the way. Mogadishu has already beaten us in the neighborhood brick-lane-way. Don't cry when u see them curb up the city with this baby.
