KeNHA Announces One-Month Long Traffic Disruption In Nairobi
The disruption will begin on Monday, March 3, and end on Monday, April 7, 2025.
The Kenya National Highways Authority (Kenha) has announced a one-month traffic disruption at the Haile Selassie roundabout in Nairobi.
The disruption will begin on Monday, March 3, and end on Monday, April 7, 2025.
This, according to Kenha, will allow for the construction of the pedestrian underpass at the section.
“The Kenya National Highways Authority (Kenha) would like to inform the public of a temporary traffic disruption at Haile Selassie Roudabout on Uhuru Highway (A8) Road.
“This traffic disruption is due to scheduled road works for construction of a pedestrian underpass at the section which will commence from Monday March 3, 2025 to Monday April 7, 2025,” the Director General Eng. Kung’u Ndung’u.
The authority advised motorists to follow the traffic management plans put in place during this period.
“Kenha advises motorists to follow the proposed traffic management plan below and cooperate with the police and traffic marshalls on site.”
Construction of the underpass began in 2024.
The Greenpark Terminus Pedestrian Underpass Network along the Uhuru Highway-Haile Selassie intersection roundabout in Nairobi is being built at a cost of Sh2 billion.
It is being constructed by the Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA) and will enable hundreds of Nairobi commuters traveling to Upper Hill and nearby areas to cross safely without disrupting traffic flow.
Roads Principal Secretary Joseph Mbugua told members of parliament that the construction of the underpass will feature 24-hour shops manned by police to enhance security and deter criminals.
Mbugua stated that the underpass will be monitored around the clock by police officers to ensure pedestrian safety
“One of the things that we need to appreciate is that on this specific one, we have even enhanced social matters, like there will be shops underneath that would also accommodate people to do business, even late at night,” said Mbugua Mbugua.
“It’s also related, and we hope that with such businesses, we will attract policing within the same area, and people walking are likely to be safer.”
