The main feasibility study for the planned 243-kilometre dual toll Mau Summit-Malaba highway will kick off within the first quarter of the 2026/27 financial year, the public-private-partnership(PPP) directorate of the National Treasury has said.
The project comprises upgrading the 243-kilometre Mau Summit- Malaba highway, converting it into an access-controlled tolled road and expanding its capacity from 2 lanes to 4 lanes. The strategic transport route is part of the Northern Corridor connecting western Kenya and Uganda and will complement the upstream Nairobi-Mau Summit highway already under construction.
