ABSTRACT This study was about the evaluation of the transportation sector on vehicle parking along Mombasa-Nairobi highway, A case study of the Mariakani Town Council (TCM) in Kilifi County. The researcher emphasizes on the specific measures to address the challenges faced by new development of influx of trucks parking anyhow causing jams and destroying pavements along the highway within the council area of jurisdiction. Based on studying supply and procurement management as a course. Researcher took into account possible causes of truck influx a long the highway within TCM jurisdiction, the researcher found that the major factor that led to the destruction of pavements and causing Jam was beyond regular explanation. The researcher used stratified random sampling as a method of selecting a sample since all the elements of the target population are given an equal chance of being selected in a given population. The researcher interpreted the findings using tables and percentages. The researcher found that the drivers evaded parking charges; police and council officials offered solicit brides. The major area of concern was the general ignorance of road usage and parking at pavements.
