The Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) has issued a travel advisory to motorists using the Muthaiga- Kiambu Road.
In a statement dated Monday, September 9, 2025, the authority warned motorists using the Muthaiga-Kiambu (B32) Road about a section of the road pavement that has collapsed between Fourways Junction and St. Mary’s School – Runda/Total Petrol Station – Fourways.
According to KeNHA, the affected section has been barricaded, and motorists are advised to strictly follow the traffic guidance provided by marshals and police.
KeNHA assured that technicians are on site to address and monitor the situation in attempts to restore normal traffic flow and safeguard the safety of all road users.

This comes after KeNHA on Saturday, September 6, 2025, issued a new advisory after a sinkhole reappeared on the Nakuru-Eldoret Highway.
“The Kenya National Highways Authority wishes to notify members of the public to continue exercising caution as they drive towards the Eveready roundabout on the A8 Road. This is due to earlier noted geological activities that had undermined the road shoulder and could potentially recur, especially with the rains,” KeNHA stated.
A sinkhole that had disrupted traffic along the Nakuru-Eldoret Highway in the Eveready area within Nakuru West Constituency reappeared just 48 hours after the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) repaired the section.
Images circulating on social media showed the sinkhole resurfacing at the same spot along the Nakuru-Eldoret Road, with residents faulting KeNHA for doing a “shoddy job”.
Locals criticized KeNHA’s short-term interventions and are urging geologists to investigate the root cause of the recurring sinkholes.

One resident stressed the need for geologists to assess the situation.
“Engineers should establish how far this tunnel extends. If it has reached the houses on the other side, people should be advised to relocate because we don’t know what damage it could cause,” he said.
Others faulted the Nakuru County Government, led by Governor Susan Kihika, accusing it of downplaying the severity of the situation.
“We are now confused. The county government assures us that everything is fine, yet human life should be the most important concern,” a resident said.
KeNHA confirmed the sinkhole was caused by water seepage and geological activity, prompting authorities to take urgent safety measures.
Motorists caught in the traffic said they were stuck for several hours as officials worked to assess and contain the situation. The disruption affected both passenger and cargo transport, with long queues of vehicles stretching for kilometers on either side of the road.
