Nairobi is set to get new traffic lights and traffic video surveillance cameras on 125 intersections in a Chinese-funded programme aimed at boosting safety and smoothening the flow of vehicles and pedestrians.

The Kenya Urban Roads Authority(Kura) said the project to be implemented by Chinese contractors will be funded through proceedings of a loan from the Exim Bank of China. The road agency did not provide details on the Chinese loan.
