Motorists will soon start paying user fees on five major highways as Kenya moves to introduce tolling, setting up millions of commuters for double taxation.
Infrastructure ministry officials Monday said plans are underway to introduce user fees on Thika Road, the Southern Bypass, the Nairobi-Mombasa highway, the second Nyali Bridge and the Nairobi-Nakuru-Mau Summit highway.
