Section of Lang’ata Road to be closed on Sunday – KeNHA

A section of Lang’ata Road will be closed to motorists as Kenha starts construction of the Lang’ata Barracks Footbridge.

In a statement on Tuesday, Director General Kungu Ndungu said that the temporary closure will take effect on Sunday, October 9 between 5am and 5pm.

“KeNHA wishes to notify the public that a section of Langata Road between the U-turn to Langata Hospital and Langata Barracks Roundabout will be closed on Sunday, October 9, 2022, from 5 am to 5 pm (12hrs),” he said.

The highways authority, however, advised motorists to follow alternative routes and obey directions that will be issued by traffic marshals on site.

“Motorists heading towards Bomas and Karen are advised to take the U-turn towards Langata Hospital through Kitengela Road then to Kungu Karumba Road and back to Langata Road at Barracks Roundabout.”

Motorists heading towards City Centre are advised to take Kungu Karumba Road then take Kitengela Road towards Langata Hospital and back to Langata Road,” Kenha said.

On October 1 and 2, a section of the road between the U-turn just after the Carnivore entrance and Uhuru Gardens Entrance was also closed for 12 hours to allow the erection of Uhuru Gardens footbridge.
