Summary
The Kenya National Highways Authority (Kenha) managing director Peter Mundinia says the Sh18.4 billion project, which is funded jointly by Kenyan taxpayers and the Chinese EX-IM Bank is more than 90 percent complete.
However, the agency has opened up the road for use ahead of its commissioning.
The class B road, which is part of the Mombasa-Isiolo-Addis Ababa Transport Corridor, will provide a direct link between Mombasa and Ethiopia through Isiolo and Moyale.
The 192km Kibwezi-Kitui-Migwani road is not yet complete but its benefits are already being felt.
