Government annouces new charges for 2024
The government has increased the charges for using the Nairobi Expressway from the current range of Ksh.100 to Ksh.310 to a new range of Ksh. 170 to Ksh.500 across all the stations along the Mlolongo-Westlands route.
Roads and Transport Cabinet SecretarySecretary Kipchumba Murkomen announced the new charges in a gazette notice dated December 31, 2023, saying the new rates take effect immediately.
Cabinet Secretary Murkomen attributed the increase to the global dollar variation rates.
“In exercise of the powers conferred by section 4B (3) of the Public Roads Toll Act, the Cabinet Secretary for Roads and Transport approves the toll rates for the Nairobi Express Way as set out in the Schedule,” stated the notice.
