Why Kenya Is Turning to PPPs to Build Its Transport Future

Kenya is entering a new era of infrastructure development — one powered not just by government budgets, but by private capital. In this documentary, we take a deep dive into how Public-Private Partnerships (PPPs) are funding Kenya’s $5 billion transport revolution, reshaping everything from highways to ports, commuter routes, and even the country’s future economy.

From the Nairobi Expressway to the Rironi–Mau Summit Highway, from the LAPSSET corridor to county road upgrades, Kenya’s transport sector is undergoing the fastest transformation in the nation’s history. Major global investors, pension funds, and engineering giants are reshaping how car transport networks are designed, financed, and maintained.

This video explores why PPPs have become essential for development, how auto transport companies are benefiting, and why modern innovations like Intelligent Transport Systems (ITS) are now a core part of Kenya’s long-term mobility strategy. If you’ve ever wondered who’s funding Kenya’s highways, why tolling is expanding, or how private financing is accelerating mega projects — this documentary breaks it all down.

We also unpack how PPP-funded roads are reducing travel times, improving logistics, supporting the auto transport industry, and connecting millions of commuters and businesses. From freight movement to everyday city travel, Kenya’s new infrastructure model is transforming mobility more rapidly than ever before.

Whether you’re interested in development, policy, engineering, economics, or simply the future of movement in Kenya — this is a story you need to see.
