A People Affordably

Housed and Well

Fed

A Wealthy Working

and Healthy Nation

Supporting Infrastructure as a Key Driver to Affordable Housing

Urban Roads Development

There are 6 Main drivers to the 1 Million affordable housing program, one of them is the Supporting Infrastructure [Urban Roads Development]

Ongoing Urban Roads Projects in Eastland's Area in Support the Proposed Renewal Plan

Why KURA?

8

KURA ensures that these Key Design principles are observed when designing for access and movement within urban spaces defined in the development framework for affordable housing

Roads identified as an Enabler to Manufacturing, Food Security

and Universal Health Care

9

Urban Roads as Enabler

Other Projects With Strategic

Development Partners

10

Integrated Systems in which information and communication technologies are applied, in among others;

Road transport, including transport infrastructure, in transport vehicles and users,

Traffic management and mobility management at nodal and network level,

Interfaces with other modes of transport e.g. BRT and railway

E-Police cameras to record violations

Nairobi Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS)

Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) Designs of Lines 3, 4 and 5

11

Section of Outer Ring Road showing space left out for future BRT lanes

Proposed Bus Rapid Transit routes

KURA has initiated a Bus Rapid Transit (BRT) concept and design in Kenya with Feasibility studies and Engineering Designs of Lines 3, 4 and 5 at advance stages in collaboration with development partners and other Government Agencies.

Proposed Viaduct Over Nairobi Railways Station

12

Study Stage: Preliminary level Study Area: CBD and periphery

of CBD as per the NIUPLAN concept

Higher Plan: 2 metropolitan development projects namely “NaMSIP and NIUPLAN” respecting “Kenya and Metro Vision 2030”.

Purpose: To improve accessibility to the CBD plus surrounding area and decongestion

Necessary Harmonization: The Viaduct project and ongoing NaMSIP projects i.e Green mall project (to avoid overlap of the projects)

Challenges: coordination with affected facilities (KRC Properties, Bus Terminal ( in front of railway station), Moi Avenue Parking Lot, NCC Market (Wakulima Market), etc.)

Design, Build, Finance, Operate, Maintain and Transfer PPP Contract, for: New 600m Bridge

across Tudor Creek, Mombasa; together with − 1.7km New Roads − Expansion of 5km of existing roads on a 30 Year Contract, with an Availability Based Payment Mechanism

Estimated Capital Cost: $200m

Examples of Challenges Experienced due to Uncoordinated Planning

16

Encroachments by traders due to lack of Markets =[Need for RAP]

Illegal Allocation on Road Truncations = [ Need for Demolition/ enforcement/Revocations of Title

Utility Services Lying on road Construction Space = [Need for Service Relocation]

Narrow Corridors = [Need for Land Acquisition]

How They affect Road Project Timelines and Cost
