  • Last year Outering Road in Nairobi was described in a United Nations (UN) global road safety meeting to be one of the most dangerous roads in the world.
    World Resources Institute (WRI) acting Global Urban Mobility Director Claudia Adriazola-Steil stated during the meeting that the road had claimed many lives with many of them being pedestrians.
    In the meeting held in New York, United States, Claudia said that the Outer Ring Road was, however, not the only example of dangerous roads in the world.

    This road has never been officially launched....the foundation stone is at the Doonholm Flyover...meanwhile there is no footbridge in Doonholm...also the Doonholm Flyover was supposed to be constructed in a manner that traffic joining Jogoo road from thika road,kariobangi and umoja join seamlessly by going down then up but only 3 turns were constructed instead of 4.Also within Doonholm there is a Service lane which has been occupied by traders and very difficult to manuevor with a vehicle....the traders need to be evicted ASAP and the drainage unclogged.

    We have tens of bodies that manage our roads; KeNHA, KURA, KERRA, NTSA, Kanjo, Kenya Police etc.
    All they do is collect 'taxes' and move on with their lives.
    That stretch, all the way from Allsops to Tajmall and back have no light
    The roads just end anywhere, for instance as your near Donholm, the road just ends in the middle of the road. Same case from Tajmall as you approach Fedha
    The same case is Northern Bypass, after Utawala. Terrible road though newly constructed

    I use this road daily and I've stated how careless and incompetent people in government are......this to me shows the effects of corruption because the contractors am very sure have a standard on how to build roads that favour both motorists, cyclist, and pedestrians. It's basic knowledge but the person or people who ware tasked with this road clearly ate some money, cut cost as much as possible thus the contractors had to do what they were paid.

    The road has very few foot bridges and they are dark and infested by thugs and hawkers who are above the law. The lights are always vandalized on the road and on the foot bridges. Na haukukutana na ngombe bado! Try the underpass under the bypass, North Road uuliwe. To join the highway from pipeline its crazy.
    Then it's not marked. Garbage blocks drainage kukuonyesha it floods and it's crazy. Matatus on Easlandroutes are owned by cops so they follow their own rules blocking traffic as they see fit! Outering is just a nightmare.
