Under this project, the 100 km-long Dundori–Ol Kalou–Jabini gravel road will be upgraded, including installation of drainage structures, traffic signs and signalling devices. As well as improving links between the project area and the rest of the country, the new road will also help boost tourism. It will also provide another link to Nairobi’s international airport and the port city of Mombassa, which will help foster the export of local produce. In addition,the area’s 500,000-strong population will enjoy better job prospects and improved access to social services,
