  "summary": "The Kenya Urban Roads Authority (KURA) has extended the partial closure of Eldoret Road in Nairobi until December 30, 2026, due to logistical and site-related challenges faced during the construction of a vehicular bridge across the Nairobi River. The initial closure period, which was set to end on September 18, 2026, has been extended until December 30, 2026, to address issues such as delays in the delivery of essential construction materials and equipment. KURA has assured the public that the project will be completed within the revised timeline while maintaining safety and quality standards, and has urged motorists to continue using alternative routes and follow the instructions of traffic police and marshals throughout the extension period.",
