The Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS) started the construction of new tarmac roads in Kibera to improve accessibility to lesser
connected regions. The project envisages construction of 28km roads as a part of the Sh5.8 billion plan aimed at upgrading 444km access roads across slums in Nairobi County. The works in the stretch of 444km roads will be completed within a year. The new 28km roads will connect Kibra to Lang’ata, Southern Bypass and neighbouring roads.
The Nairobi Metropolitan Services (NMS) started the construction of new tarmac roads in Kibera to improve accessibility to lesser
connected regions. The project, envisages construction of 28km roads as a part of the Sh5.8 billion plan aimed at upgrading 444km access roads across slums in Nairobi County. NMS will use local labor for the road project with Kibra residents the main beneficiaries. Authorities maintain that the road project will be beneficial to area residents especially in times of disaster.
Areas that will benefit are Kawangware, Riruta, parts of Dagoretti North, Mathare, Kangemi, Mukuru, Kibera, parts of Githurai 44 and 45, Mwiki and Zimmermann,with access roads in the areas upgraded to bitumen standards. These areas have for a long time suffered from poor road network hampering access to critical services.
