Starting on Monday of May 28, 2018 only two Matatus per sacco will be allowed in Nairobi’s busiest CBD.
And even so, only 5 minutes would be allowed for the matatus to drop and pick passenger. This is according to Nairobi County Director of Operations, Mr Peter Mbaya
We are now implementing the two vehicles per Sacco rule which will take effect on Monday. Over the weekend we will be sensitizing the operators before starting a major crackdown on Monday. Today we are not making any arrests. From Monday those who defy will be arrested,” said Mbaya on Saturday.
Matatus would thus be forced to look for holding places, in bid to stay on the queuing line.
Commuters from Thika, Limuru and Kiambu roads will be stopping at Murang’a Road A and B, Ngara and Desai stages.
While those from Langata, Ngong and Mombasa roads will only go as far as Railways Bus Station while those from Jogoo Road will end their journey at Muthurwa. Commuters from Waiyaki Way will alight at the Westlands stage
