Hi Guys - this is road related again

pls,if you have been on the Mau Summit to Eldoret section (and perhaps to Malaba)- what is the condition like? Have the road works been completed? Long diversions?

So:

Mau Summit- Timboroa
Timboroa-Burnt Forest
Burnt Forest-Eldoret
Eldoret-Malaba?

I have gone via Kericho-Kisumu-Busia-Kampala the last two times and I'm sure the Maseno-Busia potholes have grown bigger - so I'd like to revert to the Malaba-Kampala route if the roads are better now (better=diversions of no more than 15km)

Thanks!!!

Thanks

The problem with equality is that we desire that it be with those that have more than us rather that those that have less

Nanyuki isiolo Rd is very very bad.

Remind one of what a bad road is.

Bid potholes and thus avoid it.

last week's status.

@ Simon: Nyahururu - Nyeri is actually ~ 100k. True dat about potholes n thugs at night - I would say its a no-no after dusk.

@ Djinn,may be the table of approx distances btn towns(in the kenya postal directory) helps.0ne of the front pages has such a table.

@Djinn,
1.Nakuru-Nyahururu - 56 Km.Expect a few tricky potholes between Kenyatta High and Subukia and a couple of unmarked bumps at Igwamiti (Shopping centre right after Laikipia campus).

2..Nyahururu-Nyeri - 103 Kms.Road has been patched except for a few bad areas before and after Ndaragwa town.Beware of construction trucks between Mukinyai and Mweiga.If you are going to Nanyuki,you may take the far much shorter Solio ranch road.It's an all weather road which is not in bad condition.Avoid if it's raining.

3.Nyeri-Nanyuiki - 48 Kms.Nothing takes the wind out of me more than those bends between KWS staff quarters (King'ong'o) and Kiganjo.The rest is tandika ulale.

4.Nanyuki-Timau - Sections of this road are....what did i say?.Some disappeared long time ago.Drive carefully.After Timau,it is fairly good upto Saibuga (Isiolo junction).Turn and enjoy the short tarmack upto Lewa downs gate.From there it's diversions all the way past Rasugu centre.(Beware of Intex construction trucks and machineries).The rest is fair and lonely road..........Nanyuki -Isiolo - 82 Kms
