Naivasha-Kisumu-Malaba Standard Gauge Railway (SGR) Phase 2B

under construction

The Naivasha-Kisumu-Malaba SGR Phase 2B is a railway line project aimed at modernising transport and boosting trade across Kenya's western corridor. The railway line will be developed in two main sections: the Naivasha-Kisumu segment covering 264 kilometres and the Kisumu-Malaba stretch extending 107 kilometres, making the full corridor more than 370 kilometres long. The project will pass through nine counties and includes construction of tunnels, bridges, and culverts to navigate varied terrain. It will enhance connectivity across the Great Rift Valley, Nyanza, and Western Kenya regions, linking Kenya to neighboring countries and boosting regional trade.
