The study involved 130 diverse respondents in terms of gender, education background and age group. Questionnaire was used as research tool for gathering information and that data was analyzed through frequency statistics, cross tabulation and other descriptive statistics. The study found out that income of road users has risen due to construction of the new roads and rehabilitation of old roads. The findings have also shown among the costs incurred by road users in regard to access and use of roads to include public transport fare, wastage of traveling and transporting time, maintenance cost, increase of house rent and fuel consumption. Road users also benefited from time saving on the roads, reduced transportation cost, availability of goods and services at lower price, opening of business opportunities, job creations, and population growth. Lastly the study recommends to the Government on the need to put much emphasis on road maintenance after on road constructed as it is cheap to maintain road than constructing it.
