The Kenya National Highway Authority (KeNHA) has announced the temporary closure of a section of the Nairobi Southern By-pass from Ole Sereni Interchange to Ngong Road Interchange.

The closure begins on Tuesday 24th December, 2024, at 8:00 PM and will last until midnight on Sunday, January 5, 2025.

This closure is to facilitate the rehabilitation of the expansion joints of all the bridges along the section and the reconstruction of the concrete pavement of the Virtual Weighbridge.

“This is to enable the rehabilitation of the expansion joints of all the bridges along the closed section as well as the reconstruction of the concrete pavement of the Virtual Weighbridge,” KeNHA Director General Kung’u Ndung’u stated on Monday.

During this period, traffic will be diverted through Mombasa Road (A8) Highway, Lang’ata Road, and Ngong Road.

Motorists are advised to exercise caution, follow the proposed traffic management plan, and cooperate with police officers and traffic marshals on site to ensure smooth traffic flow
