East Africa: better links to port of Mombasa


The feasibility study for the 256 km multinational East African expressway is set to start soon, the East African Community (EAC) said.

 

The expressway will run from Kisumu (Kenya) to Kakira (Uganda) and involve rehabilitating the existing two-lane single carriageway to bitumen standards and upgrading it into a two-lane dual carriageway over a 104 km stretch.

 

This project is part of improvements on the Northern Corridor which gives landlocked East African nations faster access to the port of Mombasa in Kenya. It will also be integrated into the Mombasa-Kigali/Uganda expressway. The USD 1.4 million feasibility study project is funded by the African Development Bank (AFDB). (ben)
