Two major roads in Kiambu County are finally slated for rehabilitation, a welcome development for residents who have endured years of their dilapidated condition.

Governor Kimani Wamatangi has directed the reconstruction of the Kimbo-Matangini road in Theta Ward, Juja Sub-County, and the Thika Town Entrance-Garissa Junction Road, commonly known as Gatitu.

The governor's directive comes amidst ongoing scrutiny of the expenditure of nearly Sh500 million allocated for road projects in the county, with questions lingering on the efficacy of past investments.

The two roads have been particularly highlighted due to their dilapidated state despite substantial funds having been allocated in the past for their maintenance and improvement.
