Once complete, Nairobi Central Station is expected to handle an increase in passenger numbers from the current 16,000 per day to a projected 30,000 passengers per peak hour.

Kenya Railways Corporation (KRC) is set to reorganise matatu operations around Nairobi Central Station to pave the way for construction of the Nairobi Railway City Project, with designated drop-off points and operating lanes planned to minimise disruption to commuters.

KRC has stepped up stakeholder engagement, bringing together Public Service Vehicle (PSV) operators working around the station to brief them on the planned changes and prepare them for the upcoming construction phase.

The meeting, led by Nairobi Railway City Project Manager Milly Kiziili, focused on the PSV Operations Adjustment Strategy, which will facilitate the handover of the site to the contractor following the completion of the contractor selection process.
