The Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) Board Chairman Winfrida Ngumi and Director General Eng. Luka Kimeli conducted a comprehensive inspection of the ongoing capacity enhancement and beautification works along the corridor from Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) to James Gichuru Road.
The inspection focused on evaluating the progress of construction activities, including pedestrian walkways, drainage improvements, landscaping, and street lighting.
During the visit, the Board Chairman and Director General engaged with contractors and project managers on-site to review project timelines, quality assurance measures, and adherence to approved technical specifications.
This corridor improvement project is part of KeNHA’s broader initiative to upgrade major transport routes in Nairobi, aimed at supporting economic growth, improving the movement of goods and people, and enhancing urban mobility.
Upon completion, the upgraded route is expected to reduce travel time, increase safety, and significantly enhance the overall commuter experience.
The inspection concluded with a strong commitment to maintain strict quality control, ensure timely project completion, and conduct continuous monitoring to guarantee that all works fully align with the planned objectives and standards.
