The Kenya National Highways Authority has issued a travel dvisory following renewed flooding and silt deposition on the Mai Mahiu–Suswa–Narok (B7) Road.
In an advisory note, KeNHA stated that sections of the highway at Kedong Ranch near Suswa experienced significant flooding and heavy silt buildup, disrupting traffic flow along the key route linking Nairobi to Narok and the Maasai Mara region.
“The Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) wishes to notify motorists that this evening the Mai Mahiu – Suswa – Narok (B7) Road experienced flooding and silt deposition on several sections at Kedong Ranch near Suswa,” KeNHA’s statement read.
The authority therefore assured the public that a team have been deployed to the affected areas and are working to clear the silt and restore normal traffic movement.
According to KeNHA, the situation remains risky due to continued heavy rainfall in the area.
Motorists have been advised to avoid driving through flooded sections and to follow instructions from police officers and traffic marshals stationed along the road.
KeNHA warned that vehicles risk being swept away by fast-moving water or getting stuck in silt deposits.
They further advised motorists who have not yet begun their journeys to delay travel or consider using the Narok–Njoro–Nakuru (B18) Road as an alternative route to avoid the affected sections.
