At Sh2.7 billion per kilometre, the Nairobi Expressway is now Kenya’s most expensive road, raising concerns about its viability amid rising national debt.
The expressway, which is being constructed through a partnership between the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) and China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) at a total cost of Sh73.5 billion, is a 27-kilometre road running from Mlolongo in Machakos County to Westlands in Nairobi.
