In the notice, Kenya Railways said the project forms part of the Nairobi Commuter Railway Network and is being implemented under the Kenya Urban Mobility Improvement Project (KUMIP), which aims to enhance reliability, safety and overall service efficiency within the Nairobi Metropolitan area.
The notice was issued in collaboration with the Nairobi City County Government, the Kiambu County Government, the Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA) and the Nairobi Metropolitan Area Transport Authority (NaMATA).
Kenya Railways said the cutoff date will serve as a planning and eligibility reference point for activities and developments within the project areas and adjoining corridors under the respective agencies.
Among the areas listed in Nairobi County are roads leading to the Nairobi Central Railway Station, including Makadara, Mutindwa, Kariobangi, Dandora, KPCU, Maili Saba, Mwiki, Kahawa West and Kenyatta University Commuter Railway stations.
In Kiambu County, the notice listed several non-motorised transport (NMT) and rail-related corridors and facilities, including sections around Ruiru, as well as links associated with footbridges and NMT routes.
KURA was also listed in connection with the Likoni Road Bridge, while NaMATA’s scope included transit corridors and nodes within the Nairobi Metropolitan area supporting Bus Rapid Transit (BRT), NMT and multimodal connectivity.
Kenya Railways encouraged stakeholders — including residents, property owners and operators within the project corridor — to take note of the cutoff date as part of ongoing coordination and planning efforts to support smooth project implementation.
