KURA Explains Why Roadworks at Parklands Junction Stalled for Months

The Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA) blamed delays at the Parklands Road–Wangari Maathai Road junction in Westlands on utility relocations by several agencies, including KeNHA. KURA says the issue has been resolved and the contractor is accelerating work on pedestrian facilities, drainage and intelligent transport systems. Westlands MP aspirant Nelson Havi had criticized excavations near a stormwater drainage system and pedestrian walkway, saying the site appeared abandoned for months. Piles of soil and open trenches have raised concerns about pedestrian safety and drainage.
