Public transport operator Super Metro Sacco has been ordered to immediately halt its operations by the Transport Licensing Appeals Board (TLAB).
The ruling was issued pending the fulfillment of regulatory directives issued by the transport authority.
In the ruling, the tribunal reinstated a suspension issued by the National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) on March 18.
The decision follows a hearing in which the tribunal revealed that 269 Super Metro drivers were found to be unqualified, while 42 others had been flagged for repeated over speeding violations.
The Board directed Super Metro to present eight vehicles flagged for speed limiter violations and 31 others with inspection issues to the Likoni Motor Vehicle Inspection Centre.
In addition, 42 of the sacco’s drivers involved in over speeding incidents have been ordered to undergo retesting at the Likoni Driver Test Centre.
The tribunal also ordered the immediate dismissal of super metro’s 269 unqualified drivers.
Super Metro has further been instructed to furnish minutes and attendance records from a road safety sensitization session for all its drivers.

The appellant shall forthwith cease operations pending further orders upon confirmation of compliance with the terms of the orders herein.”
