The government is proposing to introduce a radical policy that will see Kenyans pay to use some of the country's major roads.
The Kenya National Highways Authority said on Tuesday that it is considering introducing a tolling policy for some key roads across the country.
KeNHA, however, said that the policy will be rolled out after going through adequate public publication.
"The Kenya National Highways Authority appreciates the ongoing discussion around the development of a Road Tolling Policy. The Authority assures the public that this Policy will be developed with extensive public participation to ensure that all voices are heard," KeNHA said.
Once the policy is finalized, KeNHA said, it will guide which roads will be tolled.
KeNHA said that some of the critical roads that it will be presenting for consideration include the Nairobi Southern Bypass and the Nairobi-Nakuru-Mau Summit Highway.
Others are the Thika Superhighway and Kenol-Sagana-Marua Road, the Mombasa Southern Bypass and the Dongo Kundu Bypass.
"KeNHA remains committed to transparency and inclusivity throughout this process and will continue to engage with the public at every stage," the agency said in a post on its official X account on Tuesday.
