President William Ruto has signed into law the Kenya Roads (Amendment) (No. 2) Bill, 2025, which standardizes the terms of office for Director-Generals of key road authorities. This move aims to align with the Mwongozo Code of Governance for State Corporations, enhancing accountability and performance.

• The new law changes the tenure for Director-Generals of agencies like KERRA, KURA, and KENHA from a five-year, renewable once term, to a three-year term, renewable once.
• The legislation, signed on August 8, 2025, also applies the same term length to the Director-General of the Kenya Roads Board (KRB).
• A transitional clause allows Director-Generals in their first term to be eligible for a one-year reappointment to ensure seamless leadership changes.
