The combined proposal covers the 175 km and 58 km packages. The 27.1 km Expressway is separate.
The city crossing
KeNHA places the Expressway on the Mombasa Road, Uhuru Highway and Waiyaki Way corridor. Its stated length runs between the two named junctions. Source 1
The northern corridor proposal
The proposed work covers a 175 km A8 road and 58 km of A8 South rehabilitation. Keeping the two components separate helps readers compare later notices with the original scope. Source 2
Build a project record from documents
Give each corridor its own row with termini, length, document date and stage. A later procurement notice can change scope. Keeping the earlier brief alongside it makes that change visible without confusing the two roads. Source 2 Source 1
Separate design from delivery
A length in a project brief describes what planners intend to deliver. To follow delivery, look for later procurement and works records and compare the exact package names and dates. Source 2
