A heavy traffic snarl-up was witnessed on Monday morning at Mlango 1 along the Nakuru-Eldoret highway following a road accident that brought movement to a standstill.
The incident caused a major inconvenience for long-distance drivers who rely on the highway to connect to the neighbouring nation of Uganda.
Truck drivers were forced to queue for hours, hoping that traffic and law enforcement agencies would move in quickly to clear the road and allow them to resume their journeys.
Motorists were stranded as police and first responders worked to clear the scene and restore the normal flow of traffic.
