Africa-Press – Kenya. <\/strong><\/span>Isiolo County is set to have a good road network as World Bank announces that it will finance road projects.<\/p>\n

Starting off will be the construction of the 365 kilometres of road from Isiolo-Kulamawe to Modogashe and Wajir.<\/p>\n

This is part of the 748-km Isiolo-Wajir-Mandera road of the Horn of Africa Gateway road<\/p>\n

This was revealed on Tuesday when officers from the Ministry of Transport and KeNHA visited Governor Abdi Hassan Guyo in Isiolo.<\/p>\n

The global financial institution will also finance 30 kilometres of spur roads within Isiolo urban areas.<\/p>\n

The ministry also brought up the Governor to speed on the socio-economic infrastructure (Sub-projects) along the road.<\/p>\n

Among key sub-projects include; Dispensaries, Milk Coolers, Schools and Boreholes that were all identified by local communities through public participation<\/p>\n

However, Governor Guyo advised officers from KeNHA and the Ministry of Transport not to commence on construction without engaging his office on the socio-economic benefits that the people of Isiolo County stand to gain.<\/p>\n

He emphasized that he is accountable to the residents of Isiolo County and that his main interest in the project is their needs.<\/p>\n

“As the people’s representative, don’t commence on construction without consulting me on how the road will benefit our people. My interest is the socio-economic benefit the road will bring to residents of Isiolo County,” Guyo added.<\/p>\n

The Governor also noted that employment opportunities that will emerge from the projects must prioritize residents.<\/p>\n

The Isiolo-Mandera road is expected to spur economic growth in the Arid and Semi-Arid Lands (ASALS) Counties of Isiolo, Wajir and Mandera.<\/p>\n

KeNHA will oversee the construction and completion of the 748 km project deemed a major game changer in the North Eastern Region.<\/p>\n

The whole project will be implemented in four packages with the first being the Isiolo\u2013Kulamawe\u2013Modogashe.<\/p>\n

This will involve groundbreaking for the construction of the first two segments of the road (Isiolo-Kula Mawe-Kula Mawe- Madogashe), a distance of about 200kms.<\/p>\n

Then the second package will be the Modogashe \u2013 Samatar \u2013 Wajir road project.<\/p>\n

The third phase will be the Wajir \u2013 Tarbaj \u2013 Kutulo \u2013 Elwak.<\/p>\n

The final phase will be the Elwak\u2013Rhamu\u2013Mandera which will mark the conclusion<\/p>\n
