Funded by a concessional loan of Sh3.58 billion (EUR 25.3 million) from the Spanish Corporate International Fund (FIEM), the project is expected to be completed by July 2027.

The initiative is in line with the government’s ongoing efforts to bolster infrastructure, which is pivotal for stimulating long-term economic growth and enhancing mobility within urban areas.

Safety will be prioritised through the addition of Non-Motorised Transport (NMT) facilities, ensuring safe passage for cyclists and pedestrians.

The project also includes modern street lighting to boost visibility and upgraded drainage systems to mitigate the risk of flooding during rainy seasons.

The landscaping around the project will not only add aesthetic value but also contribute to improving Nairobi’s urban environment.
