Treasury Cabinet Secretary John Mbadi has now said that he has yet to approve proposals for the planned expansion of the Rironi-Mau Summit highway, which connects Nairobi and Nakuru.
Speaking on Thursday, August 28, in an interview on Citizen TV, Mbadi noted that discussions for the expansion of the highway are in advanced stages, pending his approval.
According to him, the procurement process for the 175-kilometre road project is still in progress, but he emphasised that the highway would be constructed through a Public-Private Partnership (PPP).
During the interview, Mbadi confirmed that the government had received proposals from two companies seeking to undertake the multi-billion-shilling project.
