Description
Development and construction of Line 3, one of the proposed five Bus Rapid Transit (BRT)
transport corridors envisioned under a harmonised, citywide, sustainable transport plan for
Nairobi.

Objectives
Clean BRT Line 3 will provide a substantial improvement to the current public transport system
of the congested capital of Kenya by offering a green solution to the challenges of an efficient
bus network. It will be over 12km long, crossing the city centre of Nairobi from East to West,
connecting hospitals, Dandora train station, key market areas and it will interface with many of
the other BRT lines. As such, Clean BRT Line 3 is also the heart of the future BRT network.
The
project will involve the detailed design and construction of the bus corridor, as well as the
construction of a bus depot, procurement and acquisition of zero emission electric buses,
construction of bus stops and associated monitoring, ticketing and management facilities.

Comments
This operation will be one of the first operations under the new public sector window of the
Neighbourhood, Development and International Cooperation Instrument (NDICI) mandate in
sub-Saharan Africa.
