The rehabilitation, construction, and expansion of roads in Nairobi is part of the long-term plan to ease congestion in the capital city.
Through a press release sent to media houses, governor Sonko said political interference has been a major impediment to infrastructural development.
"Decongestion of the city has remained a major challenge but this time around we have to make unpopular decisions to implement the project," Sonko said.
He reiterated that previous attempts to decongest the city have been curtailed by what the Governor terms as selfish political and business interests, and corruption.
Sonko noted that he will not relent in making any decision that is meant to see the program succeed.
"All properties on public land, especially road reserves, will go down and we are not going to negotiate about this," added the Nairobi governor.
The county boss promised to continue investing more in infrastructure development but acknowledged that the sector still needs more funding.
He further said that the last two years his government has done 100km of roads and it is expected to open up more feeder roads in the estates this financial year.
The jubilee governor said that his administration has already started implementing its resolve in the CBD to clear off matatus from key streets by changing them to double lanes.
He gave an example of Luthuli Lane which has been rehabilitated into a two-lane street noting that Banda, Gedi, and Accra Lanes have been earmarked.
In collaboration with the national government, a long-term plan that will see matatu routes reviewed and new bus terminus built will be effected.
