What you need to know:

  • The authority announced that it will work on preventative maintenance on Mai Mahiu-Narok road to help reduce bridge washouts during the rainy season.
  • In Mombasa County, more than 200,000 mangrove seedlings were planted to replace those cleared during the construction of the Dongo Kundu bypass.

Kenya National Highways Authority (Kenha) has committed Sh20 million to the restoration of forest areas that were cleared and destroyed for road network development.

Kenha chair Wangari Ndirangu has said the authority has embarked on sustainable development as it continues breaking ground on more projects across the country.
