Infrastructure CS James Macharia has said the Mau Summit Malaba highways will be converted into a dual carriage road.


The 240 kilometre road will be dualled to ease transport congestion in the northern corridor after the dualing of the Nairobi Mombasa Road hit a snag.


The Government is negotiating the possible funding with the US Government.


The first phase of the Nairobi Mau Summit Nakuru highway is already ongoing.


This follows a ruling in KeNHA favour by a tribunal following an appeal.
