Nairobi City County has unlocked a Sh1 trillion transport project that will see the construction of the capital's first underground railway linking the Central Business District (CBD) to Eastlands before expanding to Westlands, Upper Hill, Ngong Road and Lang'ata under a multi-phase mass transit system that promises to reshape movement across the capital.

The ambitious Nairobi Metropolitan Mass Rapid Transit System (NMRTS), estimated to cost USD 7.78 billion (about Sh1 trillion), has moved from decades of planning to implementation after receiving approval from the Nairobi City County Executive Committee this week. #Nairobi
