Work on the Taveta-Voi road link connecting Kenya and Tanzania is now being planned. The 1586 African Development Bank is providing a loan worth US$113 million. The work includes widening and improving a 42km bypass at Arusha and upgrades to a 115km section of road between Holili and Arusha. This package of works is due for completion by 2018. The Kenyan Government is itself funding upgrades to a 24km section of road running from Voi-Mwatate. Many of the existing links between Kenya and Tanzania are in poor condition and require improvements. This new development will boost trade between the two countries and will also help transport through East Africa as a whole.
