The Kenya National Highways Authority on Wednesday gave an update on the traffic flow along Nairobi Nakuru Highway.
In a notice, the authority said that the traffic in the Soko Mjinga area along the busy highway had been caused by protests.
"We would like to inform all motorists plying the Nairobi- Nakuru Highway of a traffic snarl-up around the Soko Mjinga area arising from earlier protests by locals, " reads the notice.
However, the agency said police have already dispersed the protesters and they are currently restoring the traffic flow.
KeNHA has urged motorists plying the above route to exercise caution and observe traffic controls.
In a video seen by the Star, protestors had blocked the highway using trees, which resulted to traffic disruptions.
