The tarmacking of the 130km Turbi-Moyale road by a Chinese firm, which connects Kenya and Ethiopia, is poised to unlock economic opportunities in Kenya's northern county of Marsabit, and the country as a whole.
The road, which is set to be completed by June, is being constructed by the Chinese firm Wuyi.
The road has opened up the towns in the Upper Eastern part of Kenya to trade, and helped boost trade amongst locals and people from other parts of the country.
