Nairobi City County Government has launched a substantial Sh38.1 billion water and sanitation upgrade plan to enhance access to clean water and sewage infrastructure in the capital.

• The initiative is the largest part of the overarching Sh80 billion Nairobi Rising urban transformation plan.
• Key projects include upgrading the Ngethu–Gigiri water transmission pipeline and constructing a 27-kilometre trunk sewer.
• This ambitious program aims to address water shortages and sanitation challenges exacerbated by Nairobi's rapidly growing population, projected to reach six million.
