The Kenya Railways Corporation (KRC) has introduced a fuel price adjustor in its new cargo freight tariffs for 2026, marking a shift that will see users pay more when fuel prices rise, as seen in the current pricing cycle to May 14.
The changes, which took effect on April 1, introduce a base freight rate tied to a fuel price benchmark of Sh170 per litre in Nairobi, meaning charges will now move in line with prevailing petroleum prices.
