Nairobi's Central Park finally reopens after nearly 5 years
Sakaja announced on Tuesday that the green space is now rehabilitated after years of works.
Nairobi’s Central Park has re-opened after a major rehabilitation project, offering residents a place to walk, relax, meet friends and enjoy green space. The park had been closed for extensive renovation due to deteriorating facilities over time. The rehabilitation aimed to modernise the park, improve safety and recreational amenities, and return the iconic public space to a standard suitable for a growing capital city.
The reopening coincides with Governor Johnson Sakaja's efforts to revive Nairobi's public spaces. The County Government's commitment to accessible, safe, clean, and properly maintained public spaces is evident in the reopening of Central Park and Uhuru Park. Maureen Njeri, the Green Nairobi CECM, highlighted the significance of the reopening in expanding access to quality recreational and green spaces in Nairobi.
The County Government's next steps involve maintaining the park to ensure the improvements are sustained and that Nairobians can continue to enjoy the facility.
