Daily traffic on the Nairobi Expressway has shot up by nearly 40 percent this year as more vehicles avoid the congested Mombasa Road and Waiyaki highways, shifting the traffic pain to the double decker road that has seen motorists get stuck at exit points.
Up to 70,000 vehicles are now using the 27km elevated road cutting across Mlolongo, through Mombasa Road, the upper side of Nairobi Central Business District (CBD) atop Uhuru Highway, upto Westlands to end at James Gichuru Road as motorists seek to save on time and fuel.
