Narok Governor Samuel Tunai on Monday said he has requested President Uhuru Kenyatta to intervene through the Kenya National Highways Authority to help construct the road to highway specifications. Currently, most motorists travelling from Kajiado and Nairobi counties access Narok through Nakuru. Heavy rains pounding the area caused the deluge and it cut off the road at Suswa near the Standard Gauge Railway line construction area. HAVOCMr Amos Lepaan, a resident, said railway contractors have diverted the water to one spot, causing havoc along the road. Mr Stephen Bet, a lorry driver who was travelling from Narok to Nairobi said they had spent hours waiting for the floods to subside.
