Governor Jonathan Bii Chelilim Spearheads Consultative Meeting for Mlango-Moiben Dual Carriageway Project

In a proactive move aimed at enhancing regional connectivity and easing traffic congestion, Governor Jonathan Bii Chelilim orchestrated a pivotal consultative meeting with officials from the Kenya National Highways Authority (KENHA). The focal point of discussion? The meticulous planning and seamless execution of the Mlango-Moiben Junction Dual Carriageway, a pivotal component of Eldoret’s modern road infrastructure.

The 21.5-kilometre artery, slated to stretch from Eldoret International Airport through Eldoret town to Moiben Junction, promises to revolutionize mobility within and beyond Uasin Gishu County. Not merely confined to asphalt and concrete, the project ambitiously incorporates link roads spanning the six sub-counties of Ainabkoi, Soy, Kesses, Moiben, Kapseret, and Turbo.

During the collaborative engagement, Governor Chelilim articulated a resolute emphasis on prioritizing local manpower, underscoring the paramount importance of community involvement in driving regional development initiatives forward. Additionally, the governor underscored the imperative of a comprehensive compensation strategy for residents affected by the project, ensuring equitable outcomes for all stakeholders involved.

This consultative milestone marks the commencement of the project’s first phase, symbolizing a collective commitment to fostering sustainable progress and socio-economic prosperity in the region. With Governor Chelilim at the helm, the vision of a modern, interconnected Eldoret inches closer to realization, promising a future where smooth roads pave the way for smoother journeys.
