The government has attributed the delay in completing the first section of the Rironi-Mau Summit road to shortages and the cost of bitumen, according to Tuko.

Davis Chirchir said the bitumen problems have held up work on the Rironi-Naivasha stretch, the report states.

The first section is now expected to open in December, after the previously announced October 30 deadline passed, Tuko reports.
