The government is in the final stages of establishing a membership-only club in Nairobi to pave the way for the extension of the Uhuru Highway and the building of a matatu terminus.
Speaking at the Senate on Tuesday, November 10, Nairobi Senator Johnson Sakaja informed the house that Ksh5 billion had already been committed by the Government to buy land owned by the Kenya Railways Retirement Pension Scheme.
“Treasury has confirmed that the money is available and that the NLC is finalising the valuation for the compulsory acquisition of Railways Club land,” Sakaja stated.
The government is buying the Railways’ land for the Nairobi Expressway Road project and for the construction of a bus terminus along the Uhuru Highway for matatus from Mombasa Road, Lang’ata Road and Ngong Road to the capital.
When completed, it will act as a final stop for passengers traveling to the CBD, as the Nairobi Metropolitan Services attempts to prevent Matatus from entering the CBD.
