The Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) has announced the closure of a road along the Nakuru-Kampi ya Moto road.
In a notice on Wednesday, KeNHA said that traffic disruption along the Nakuru-Kampi ya Moto (B17) road was caused by the emergence of a sinkhole at a section of the area.
The agency said that the area affected was specifically at Kiamunyi near Riva Petrol Station, approximately 1.5 km from the KFA Roundabout.
KeNHA added that maintenance works are currently underway to address the issue.
To ensure free movement of traffic, the transport agency urged to follow the proposed traffic management plan and cooperate with the police and traffic marshals on site.
"Communities Motorists travelling to and from Nakuru, Eldoret, and Baringo are advised to use the diversion road as directed by police and traffic marshals on-site," the notice read.
"For safety, motorists should approach the affected section with caution, adhere to the traffic signs displayed, and follow the guidance provided by the traffic marshals and police at the scene."
