The Kenya National Highways Authority (Kenha) has released over 4.3 billion shillings to the National Land Commission for compensation of persons affected by the Kengeleni–Kwa Kadzengo project. The construction works are along key sections including Kengeleni Lights area, Leisure, Bombolulu in Mombasa, Mtwapa town and Kwa Kadzengo in Kilifi County. Speaking during an inspection tour of the Mtwapa bridge project, Engineer Makau said the construction of the dual carriageway is 56 percent complete and is expected to be fully completed by August 2027. A new bridge will also be constructed, a move expected to ease traffic congestion and boost tourism and business activities in the Coast region.
