KeNHA issues road safety appeal as festive season travel volumes increase

The Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) has called on motorists and pedestrians to exercise increased responsibility as the festive season leads to higher traffic volumes across the national road network. 

The authority noted that the combination of social gatherings, public events, and holiday travel significantly elevates the risk of road accidents and other preventable incidents.

Road users are encouraged to plan journeys in advance and strictly follow established traffic rules and public regulations. KeNHA emphasized that maintaining respect for other travelers is essential for safety during this period.

The advisory suggests that individual discipline remains a primary factor in ensuring the highways remain safe for all participants throughout the celebrations.

The appeal comes as the authority reminds the public that achieving a peaceful festive season requires shared civic responsibility.

By adhering to designated regulations and exercising self-control, residents and visitors can contribute to reducing the likelihood of highway tragedies. 

KeNHA remains focused on its role in road management while urging the public to play their part in maintaining order on the roads.
