The population of Mai Mahiu town in Naivasha is expected to rise due to the upcoming infrastructure projects that include a multi-billion industrial park and the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR).

With operations at the park on the rise and investors seeking land, the national and county governments have moved in to address challenges on access to health, water, and sanitation services.
