Section of Rironi-Kamandura road to be closed for over two months: KeNHA

The Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) has announced more than two months of traffic disruption affecting motorists along Waiyaki Way, Limuru Road and Mai Mahiu Road.

KeNHA, in a statement on Tuesday, said the temporary closure of Rironi/Kamandura Interchange at the Junction set to begin from August 22 to October 31, 2025, paves the way for repairs and construction.

“This is due to scheduled road works for reconstruction of the Rironi/Kamandura Interchange, including slip road, loops and approach roads, from Friday, 22nd August 2025 to Friday, 31st October 2025,” stated KeNHA acting Director General Luka Kimeli.

The Authority therefore advised motorists to use alternative routes to avoid inconveniences, urging them to adhere to the laid out traffic management plan, project road signs while co-operating with police and traffic marshals on site for smooth navigation.

Road users plowing along Waiyaki Way (A8) to Mai Mahiu (A8 South) have been advised to join the Old Naivasha Road just after Rubis Tilisi and proceed straight to Mai Mahiu.

Those from Mai Mahiu/A8 South to Nairobi will turn at Mutarakwa Junction onto Limuru Road and proceed to join A8 (Waiyaki Way) at Kwa Mbira Flyover.

Traffic from Ruaka/Ndenderu or Kabuku will proceed to Limuru Town and join the highway (A8) at Kwa Mbira Flyover, while traffic along the highway to and from Kama ndura - Kimende - Naivasha road (A8) remains unchanged.
