Kangondo Road after being hit by a car, an incident that renewed calls for safer crossings and improved pedestrian infrastructure along the road.<\/p>\n<h4>Pedestrians pay the highest price<\/h4>\n<p>According to the Bloomberg Philanthropy Global Road Safety Initiative, approximately 560 people lose their lives annually on Nairobi&#039;s roads.<\/p>\n<p>Kenya\u2019s National Transport and Safety Authority also reported that the average number of road fatalities was 13 per day during 2024.<\/p>\n<p>For comparison, Italy and South Korea, which have populations similar to Kenya&#039;s, record an average of nine and seven deaths per day respectively.<\/p>\n<p>Data from the National Transport and Safety Authority and estimates from the World Health Organization indicate that pedestrians account for between 351 TP3T and 501 TP3T of all road traffic fatalities in Kenya, making them the most vulnerable group among road users.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cA vehicle traveling at high speed within the city can make simply crossing the road a fatal accident, so modern safety strategies focus on speed management and safer street design,\u201d says Tom Obiu, transport policy expert at the Kenya Urban Roads Authority.<\/p>\n<p>Despite the significant expansion of the road network within Nairobi over the past two decades, through the construction of highways and bypasses that have helped reduce travel times and open up new development corridors, walking remains the essential link in most daily journeys.<\/p>\n<p>A large number of the city\u2019s residents rely on \u201cMatato\u201d buses for long-distance travel, but reaching the bus stops often requires walking long distances, especially for residents of informal settlements far from the main transport corridors.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_15770\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15770\" style=\"width: 2560px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\"

the journey,\u201d says Alex Munin, an urban mobility specialist at the University of Nairobi. \u201cWalking is not an option, it is an essential part of every journey.\u201d.<\/p>\n<h4>A gap in pedestrian infrastructure<\/h4>\n<p>Traffic safety experts believe that the large investments directed towards developing vehicle infrastructure have not been accompanied by a similar focus on pedestrian facilities.<\/p>\n<p>Mary Abongo, a road safety expert at the Global Road Safety Partnership, explains that many road accidents are not random accidents but rather a direct result of urban design.<\/p>\n<p>She says: \u201cWhen thousands of people have to walk daily on roads that lack connected sidewalks, pedestrian crossings, or traffic calming measures, the danger becomes part of the system itself.\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>She added that the chances of serious injury or death increase significantly in such environments, stressing that these results represent \u201cpredictable design failures\u201d rather than random events.<\/p>\n<p>A survey conducted by the International Road Assessment Programme (IRAP) showed that 95% of Nairobi&#039;s roads experience high pedestrian traffic density, while only 20% of them are equipped with dedicated pedestrian sidewalks.<\/p>\n<p>Even in locations where sidewalks are available, they are often obstructed by parked cars, street vendors, or poor maintenance, forcing pedestrians to use vehicle lanes.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are large numbers of pedestrians walking alongside infrastructure that does not provide them with adequate protection,\u201d says Natalie Chiavasa, Africa director at IRAP. \u201cEvidence suggests that safe crossings and reduced speeds can significantly decrease fatalities.\u201d.<\/p>\n<p><img

January, a motorcyclist was killed after being hit by a minibus heading to Nairobi&#039;s central business district, before the driver fled the scene.<\/p>\n<p>Within minutes, a number of motorcyclists surrounded the bus, smashed its windows and set it on fire, while its passengers barely escaped.<\/p>\n<p>Many residents believe that this incident reflects the growing anger towards the recurring accidents and the lack of change on the ground.<\/p>\n<p>Kennedy Owino, a representative of the Save Lives Coalition in Kenya, says: \u201cThe angry reactions reflect people\u2019s feeling that incidents are constantly recurring without real action. The anger is directed at the entire system, not at a single incident.\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>On June 3, the Nairobi City County Government announced its joining the Bloomberg Philanthropy Global Road Safety Initiative (BIGRS), a $350 million program that works with more than 30 cities around the world to reduce road traffic fatalities.<\/p>\n<p>The program has previously supported similar reforms in cities such as Bogota, Colombia, and Fortaleza, Brazil, where speed management measures and the redesign of dangerous roads have been linked to a significant decrease in the number of deaths.<\/p>\n<h4>Cooperation is essential<\/h4>\n<p>During the launch ceremony for the initiative, Nairobi County Governor Johnson Sakaja said: \u201cNairobi is a rapidly growing city, which makes this collaboration necessary and timely.\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>For her part, Gladys Nyashio, senior lecturer in urban and regional planning at the University of Nairobi, expressed her optimism about the program&#039;s ability to bring about real change.<\/p>\n<p>She said: \u201cWhat distinguishes this initiative is its focus on institutional change, through improving data, enhancing law enforcement, and redesigning hazardous corridors, steps that can have a long-term impact.\u201d.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_15766\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-15766\" style=\"width: 750px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-15766\" src=\"https:\/\/zoomafricanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1586286398175.jpg\" alt=\"Kenya roads \" width=\"750\" height=\"562\" srcset=\"https:\/\/zoomafricanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1586286398175.jpg 750w, https:\/\/zoomafricanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1586286398175-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/zoomafricanews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/1586286398175-16x12.jpg 16w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-15766\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Kenya roads<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>But other experts warn that the success of the initiative will still depend on continued local commitment after international support ends.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cInternational programs can provide technical expertise and data, but the sustainable impact depends on how committed cities are to enforcing the laws and implementing the required infrastructure changes in the long term,\u201d says Winnie Mettula of the university\u2019s Institute for Development Studies.<\/p>\n<p>James Mwangi, who hears about new initiatives and plans every day, is approaching the matter with caution.<\/p>\n<p>He sums up his position by saying: \u201cIf they fix the road, I will know.
