The two-kilometre Kasarani-Mwiki road that was repaired in 2015 at a cost Sh500 million by the county government has turned into a nightmare for motorists and pedestrians alike. Commonly referred to as shamba la kwenda Mwiki (the farm route to Mwiki), it has become a collection of potholes.
The result is a never-ending traffic jam even in off-peak hours. Jessica Omwaka, a resident of Mwiki Phase Three, is considering leaving her car at home and use public transport.
