NAIROBI, Kenya June1 – The Horn of Africa gateway road set to benefit from four counties in the northern parts of Kenya will be completed in four phases.

The whole project will be implemented in four packages with the first being the Isiolo – Kulamawe – Modogashe.
This will involve groundbreaking for the construction of the first two segment of the road (Isiolo-Kula Mawe-Kula Mawe- Madogashe), a distance of about 200kms.
Then the second package will be the Modogashe – Samatar – Wajir road project.The third phase will be the Wajir – Tarbaj – Kutulo – Elwak. With the final phase will be the Elwak – Rhamu – Mandera which will mark the conclusion
Experts have said the funding for the other segments has already been secured, saying that the entire road from Isiolo to Mandera is to be complete latest by 2028.
The road will improve movement of people and goods as well as enhance connectivity and access to social services for over 3 million people living in the North Eastern region along the Isiolo – Mandera regional road corridor.
