Nairobi residents and motorists have been urged to brace for traffic disruptions across various parts of the city this weekend as a number of key roads will be closed for hours for the fourth edition of the Nairobi City marathon.
The marathon, which will take place on Sunday, July 6, will be the biggest one yet, with organisers estimating that at least 15,000 participants will take part in the event.
Ahead of the monumental event, several roads have been cordoned off to facilitate the marathon, meaning traffic will be disrupted from as early as on Saturday, July 5 at 10 pm.
Notably, the Nairobi Expressway will be the most affected, as it will be closed from James Gichuru all the way to the Jomo Kenyatta International Airport (JKIA) in both directions.
