Furthermore, the country’s education system gets relatively good marks
for quality (30th) as well as for on-the-job training (31st).

The European Union has given Kenya Sh3.4 billion grant to build eight missing road links in Nairobi to ease congestion in the eastern parts of the city. The 16 kilometres project will create connections with Limuru road to Waiyaki Way and Thika road, as well as link Enterprise road to Mombasa road.

It will see parts of six major roads — Lusaka, Enterprise, Quarry and Ring Road Parklands — turned into dual carriage-ways. The section between General Waruinge road and Juja road will be upgraded and connected to the superhighway.

European Union head of delegation Lodewijk Briet said construction will begin this month and last two years.

“Work is starting on 16 kilometres of road links in Nairobi which are designed to ease congestion between major junctions. Streetlights will be installed and all the roads have pavement constructed alongside the highway. In addition, two new walking/cycling-specific routes will be built along Rabai road and Lusaka road,” he said.

The government is contributing Sh1.5 billion to build 21 kilometres of footpaths and cycle ways. Traffic management procedures will be put in place while the work takes place to ensure smooth traffic flow.


Lets take note and make noise as necessary, hoping they are not empty promises or projects awaiting another lengthy bureaucratic scrutiny to materialize..

Nairobi, Sunday. Kenya is positioning itself as the regional power distribution hub through which electric power from as far as Egypt could eventually be transmitted to Southern Africa.

With the construction of one of the biggest power collection points in the region at Suswa, Narok County, the Kenya Electricity Transmission Company (Ketraco) says it expects to be able to distribute power westwards to Uganda, Rwanda and Burundi as well as southwards to Tanzania, Zambia and eventually southern Africa.

The Suswa project gained added significance last week when it emerged during a power industry conference in Nairobi that Tanzania and Rwanda have signed a power purchase agreement with Ethiopia to buy 400MW of power each.


Quote:
Kenya has already signed a similar MoU with Ethiopia, and Ketraco is undertaking a Sh63 billion power evacuation project via a 1,100km high-voltage direct-current line from Wolayita Sodo in Ethiopia to terminate at a conversion substation at Suswa. Ketraco will then transmit power from Suswa through a substation being built at Isinya and onwards to Arusha. This line will then link to Singida, still in Tanzania, and onwards to Zambia as part of the ZTK (Zambia-Tanzania-Kenya) transmission line project.


Quote:
Suswa will also link up to the Ol-Karia geothermal power plants and then take power to Uganda via the Ol-Karia-Lessos-Tororo line currently under construction. With several other high-voltage transmission lines converging at Suswa, it is emerging as the site of one of the most crucial infrastructure installations in the country.

“Suswa substation is actually a collection of substations,” John Mativo, the chief manager for planning and development at Ketraco, told Sunday Nation.


This gives lots of points to Kenya and Ethiopia. Ethiopia wants to be a major power distributor in Africa!!

hii si nairobi... this is just outside 'Ndunyu'... dagoretti market. on the road that heads west from the Karen roundabout. the road on top is the by pass to kikuyu. si it's not a deservice to nairobians it's a diservice to kikuyuans. By the way they just redid something that was there since the mkoloni days... it was almost the same size.

I gerrit. But this being a permanent thing, it was just wrong to build it this way! Even the old bridges on the old thika road had huge allowances for future expansion. Anyway, haisuru!
