The Kenya Urban Roads Authority (Kura) has said it will complete upgrading of 408km of roads in informal settlements in Nairobi by November, 2022.
The Sh5.8 billion project, which involves re-carpeting and upgrading of the roads to cabro and asphalt (bitumen) standard, was launched in November last year but contractors commenced the works this January.
