Furthermore, the Green Mobility-Nairobi core bus rapid transit line 3 (BRT 3) is set to incorporate zero-emission electric buses, along with implementing intelligent transport system features, providing affordable fare options, ensuring accessibility to the public transport system for marginalized groups such as youth, women and low-income households, and prioritizing traveller safety.

The Roads & Transport CS signed the agreement and, in addition, engaged in a conversation with the other leader on various significant topics of common concern, such as trade & investment, embracing climate change, healthcare, and technology.
