APPENDIX 11 FUTURE SOCIO-ECONOMIC FRAMEWORK Page 11.1 DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL AND CONSTRAINT A11-1 11.2 URBAN LAND USE TYPES AND DISTRIBUTING PRINCIPLES A11-4 NUTRANS The Study on Master Plan for Urban Transport in the Nairobi Metropolitan Area APPENDIX 11 FUTURE SOCIO-ECONOMIC FRAMEWORK 11.1 DEVELOPMENT POTENTIAL AND CONSTRAINT Water Supply Capacity The existing water supply in the Nairobi City has four sources, namely Kikuyu Spring, Sasumua Dam, Ruiru Dam, and Ngethu. Water shortage is a growing problem in the Nairobi Metropolitan Area because of the water loss reportedly amounting to some 50% of total water supply and expanding population. Water supply plan with target year 2000 was formulated in the “Third Nairobi Water Supply Project". The projected population of Nairobi City would be 3.86 million and corresponding projected water demand would be 752.2 thousand cubic meters per day in 2010. Planned area of piped water supply covers the whole Nairobi City and some part of Ruiru to the north, and Syokimau to the southeast. Local area water supply projects are proposed in Ngong and Ongata Rongai to the southwest and Western Shamba Area to the northwest of Nairobi City. Gravity type water supply system can be applicable to the areas less than 1,700m above sea level in the Nairobi Metropolitan Region (See Figure 11.1-1). FIGURE 11.1-1 WATER SUPPLY SCHEME IN NAIROBI CITY Final Report Appendix A11-1 NUTRANS The Study on Master Plan for Urban Transport in the Nairobi Metropolitan Area Sewerage Treatment Plan The whole Nairobi City is not covered by the existing sewerage system managed by Nairobi City Water and Sewerage Company. Sewer mains are laid along the Nairobi River, Matari and Ruiruaka River, and Ngong River. Nearly 20 sewerage disposal plants are operated. Large scale sewerage disposal plants exists at Dandora and Kariobangi. Septic tank and latrines are used in those area where sewerage disposal system is not available. Sewerage disposal plan up to 2020 was shown in "Nairobi Master Plan for Sewers, Sanitation and Drainage”. According to the Plan, projected population in Nairobi City would be 4.09 million in 2020 and high population increase was assumed in Embakasi Division. The planned sewerage disposal area was determined basically to accord to that of water supply. Local area sewerage disposal systems are proposed in Ngong and Ongata Rongai area to the southwest and Western Shamba Area to the northwest of Nairobi City (See Table 11.1-1 and Figure 11.1-2).

    Sediment Dynamics and Improvised Control Technologies in the Athi River Drainage Basin, Kenya

    Sediment Dynamics in Changing Environments (Proceedings of a symposium held 485 in Christchurch, New Zealand, December 2008). IAHS Publ. 325, 2008. Sediment dynamics and improvised control technologies in the Athi River drainage basin, Kenya SHADRACK MULEI KITHIIA Postgraduate Programme in Hydrology, Department of Geography and Environmental Studies, University of Nairobi, PO Box 30197, 00100 GPO, Nairobi, Kenya [email protected] Abstract In Kenya, the changing of land-use systems from the more traditional systems of the 1960s to the present mechanized status, contributes enormous amounts of sediments due to water inundations. The Athi River drains areas that are subject to intense agricultural, industrial, commercial and population settlement activities. These activities contribute immensely to the processes of soil erosion and sediment transport, a phenomenon more pronounced in the middle and lower reaches of the river where the soils are much more fragile and the river tributaries are seasonal in nature. Total Suspended Sediments (TSS) equivalent to sediment fluxes of 13 457, 131 089 and 2 057 487 t year-1 were recorded in the headwater areas, middle and lower reaches of the river, respectively. These varying trends in sediment transport and amount are mainly due to the chemical composition of the soil coupled with the land-soil conservation measures already in practice, and which started in the 1930s and reached their peak in the early 1980s. This paper examines trends in soil erosion and sediment transport dynamics progressively downstream. The land-use activities and soil conservation, control and management technologies, which focus on minimizing the impacts of overland flow, are examined to assess the economic and environmental sustainability of these areas, communal societal benefits and the country in general.

  • Nairobi-Thika-Transp

    Nairobi-Thika-Transp

    FOREWORD I am pleased to introduce this 10-plan year which is a road map on how the Nairobi - Thika Superhighway Transport Corridor (NTTC) is geared to develop. This is the first comprehensive spatial plan covering the NTTC, which is within Ruiru and Juja Sub-Counties and it has been prepared at a time when Kiambu County is grappling with the challenges of tackling rapid urbanisation. I am happy to note that, this plan has been prepared in a participatory manner taking into account the contributions of various stakeholders whose role in the implementation of the proposals is fundamental. Kiambu is the third most urbanised County after Nairobi and Mombasa and has witnessed rapid urbanisation in the few decades with people moving into the County to settle, set business, and undertake other development activities. The NTTC has witnessed rapid urbanisation coupled with high population growth and economic activities in the last ten years since the onset of devolved government and the upgrading of the Nairobi-Thika Highway thus changing the corridor’s character. Due to this rapid growth as a County, we are expected to commit more investments to cope with this expansion. More people need to be accommodated in a suitable environment with ease of movement, adequate physical and social infrastructure and employment opportunities. However, most of this urbanisation is happening with little or no planning intervention as characterised by piecemeal subdivision and land-use conversions. Due to the absence of planning tools like the Plan to guide and manage this rapid urbanisation, the current development in these areas is suffering from uncoordinated growth, land use conflict, inadequate basic infrastructure facilities and services, poor housing, and inefficient public transportation system, amongst other challenges.
