The Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) has issued a 30-day eviction notice to individuals and structures illegally occupying the road reserve along the Ruiru-Githunguri-Uplands (B116) Road.

• The notice demands all unauthorized roadside traders and occupants to vacate by August 10.
• This action by KeNHA is in preparation for the planned Ksh4 billion upgrade of the 44-kilometre road.
• The upgrade aims to improve road safety, ease traffic flow, and enhance connectivity across Kiambu County and the Nairobi Metropolitan Area.

The National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) has issued a fraud alert warning Kenyans about fake SMS messages demanding payment for traffic fines through fraudulent links. Scammers are exploiting the recent rollout of the Instant Fines Management System to deceive unsuspecting victims.

• NTSA has identified several fake websites, social media accounts, and phone numbers not affiliated with the authority.
• Motorists are urged not to click suspicious links, reply to messages, or make payments through unofficial platforms; instead, they should delete the messages and use official NTSA channels.
• The warning comes as the new Instant Fines Management System faces backlash over unclear responsibility for fine payments, though NTSA maintains offenses are linked to both driver's licenses and registered vehicle owners.
