Deadly road
Outering road is listed as one of the deadliest roads in Nairobi.
Unfortunately, even after the erection of 13 footbridge costing sh880 million, pedestrians have continued the mad dash across the road, while avoiding the footbridges.
Mutindwa, and the area between Donholm and Fedha estates have proved to be the most prone to crashes and death of pedestrians while crossing.
The road is also unfinished in some parts, especially the drainage.
Outering road also has some unexpected ending of lanes. A redesign of the road would be greatly appreciated by the residents.
