The president made a big promise about that awful Nairobi to Nakuru highway. William Ruto said the notorious holiday traffic jams on the Rironi to Mau Summit road should be finished for good by December of next year. He stated this current festive season would be the last one where people get stuck for hours trying to get home. While the whole project will take longer, he claimed the most critical sections will be done and open by then. The plan is to turn the route into a modern dual carriageway, with four lanes up to Naivasha and six lanes from there into Nakuru.

This massive overhaul, costing hundreds of billions, started recently as a public-private partnership. It is supposed to add interchanges, lighting, and safety features. Ruto framed it as a key upgrade for regional trade and transport. For now, though, the highway authority is still warning drivers to expect disruptions and consider alternate routes, as construction is ramping up. People who use the corridor have dealt with its dangerous seasonal gridlock for decades, so many are welcoming the news of a permanent fix.
