    Salgaa has perhaps been the most notorious black spot in the country if the number of road accidents that have happened along the road is anything to go by.
    The accidents have robbed dozens of families of their loved ones and left tens of others with injuries. but the move to dual the stretch separating traffic with a movable barrier had been bearing fruit.

    I stumbled on the Outer-ring road documentary today morning...didn't have time to go down the rabbit hole cos I was watching while preparing to start my day...I haven't even watched this yet but I know it will be good, and I have a feeling I'll be on this channel for the rest of the night now that I've started watching again...Brilliant work. You definitely need more subscribers...and if you ever need a sound guy/music ✋🏾✋🏾✋🏾

    I believe that the road was also made a dual carriageway in addition to the wall being built. Previously, it only had a climbing lane, and of course no wall.

    I've been a driver on these stretch for close to a century now,I was there before the wall & I can attest to it that the wall has done much, though it doesn't prevent accidents from happening,it minimizes the impact from road crashes by 50% in that only vehicles heading in one direction are involved, initially,before the wall,both vehicles heading in the same direction & from the opposite direction were involved
