African Development Bank financing for Kenya roadway boosts local economy and regional integration
Kenya is making rapid progress in the construction of its part of the Great Trans-African highway that runs from Cairo in Egypt to South Africa’s Cape Town.
The 84km Kenol-Sagana-Marua highway, which runs through central Kenya, is being upgraded from a single lane road to a dual carriageway. It is expected to be completed in six months, two years earlier than scheduled. The roadway connects Nairobi with major commercial and agriculturally important towns in central, upper eastern and northern Kenya.,
Driving time on the Kenol-Sagana-Marua road has been drastically reduced thanks to the new highway, says African Development Bank President Akinwumi Adesina while visiting the Kenol-Sagana-Marua highway works on 31 May 2022
