For a while, the Southern Bypass in Nairobi was my favorite highway in the region! Judging by this video, Dongo Kundu in Mombasa might just be the new heavy weight!

Bear in mind that this is just the first phase of an incredible project! Mombasa has come of age and is undoubtedly the most developed city on the East African coast.

Enjoy!

The government is banking on infrastructure projects in the coastal region to provide jobs and boost regional trade.
The Ministry of Transport sees the construction of Dongo Kundu bypass, which will link the Northern Corridor, Port of Mombasa, the Moi International Airport and the newly-refurbished Kipevu Container Terminal, as a game changer.
Now on its second phase, the project is being implemented by the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) in partnership with Japan International Cooperation Agency (Jica).

The first phase was built at a cost of Sh11 billion with the second phase projected to cost Sh24 billion.
President Uhuru Kenyatta launched construction of the second phase on October 19. It involves building two bridges at Mwache and Mteza, measuring 900 metres and about 1.4 kilometres, respectively.
