EXPRESSWAY NIGHT SHIFT

As the sun sets in Nairobi and everything slows down, the lights are turned on for the Nairobi Expressway project. Minimizing traffic disruptions remains a key objective in the execution of the construction works being undertaken along one of the busiest roads in the country.

In the dead of the night, trucks ferrying materials can be seen buzzing in and out of the work sites. Graders run up and down the layers of material under powerful lights that provide the workers with the benefit of vision at night.

At night, as you drive from town past the JKIA turnoff section and up the overpass, a look to your right reveals the Expressway at the centre alignment of the road, beaming with activity. On site, the sound of engines running shift your mind away from the evening chills.

The people on ground are sharp and alive, quick to pick out and deal with anything that looks out of the ordinary. Even as working at night minimises traffic disruption, workers at night are required to be more alert to avoid accidents.

The implementation of construction works along the Nairobi Expressway both in day time and in night time will be a significant factor in the timely completion of the project. This strategy is and will continue minimising traffic snarl ups that come with road construction works along an extremely busy highway.
