The African Development Bank (AfDB) has granted $1.4 million (sh5.2b) to the East African Community (EAC) for the feasibility study of the Kisumu-Kisian-Busitema-Busia Expressway Project. This funding, provided through AfDB’s New Partnership for Africa’s Development and Infrastructure Project Preparation Facility (NEPAD-IPPF), aims to support the development of the Expressway, which is a vital component of the Northern Corridor. The corridor spans from Mombasa to Burundi, Democratic Republic of Congo, Rwanda, and Uganda, facilitating the transportation of cargo from Indian Ocean ports to the five landlocked EAC Partner States.
