This is part of the Sh5.8 billion aimed at upgrading 408km of access roads across informal settlements in Nairobi county. Works done by the authority include re-carpeting of roads and upgrading to Carbo and Asphalt Concrete (Bitumen ). "As we Kura, we are on course to cover the 408km as the completion date is in November 2022 despite the Covid-19 pandemic and rains," he said. Also, the improvising of water and sanitation, roads and drainage, and electrification have already commenced in the informal settlements.
