Kitui Town, Kenya – A new chapter is unfolding in Kitui Town as the Ministry of Lands and Urban Development intensifies efforts to modernize the urban landscape in line with Governor Dr. Julius Makau Malombe’s development agenda.
The latest improvement—ongoing cabro paving between Maguna Supermarket and the Univision Sacco building—marks a significant step in the county’s urban renewal program. The project is designed to enhance the town’s visual appeal while promoting Non-Motorised Transport (NMT) for pedestrians and cyclists.
“This is not just about beautification,” said an official from the Urban Development Department. “It’s about making Kitui Town more accessible, sustainable, and enjoyable for everyone.”
The paving initiative is part of a phased approach to urban development, rooted in Governor Malombe’s commitment to community-focused, environmentally conscious infrastructure. His administration has made urban transformation a central pillar of its development blueprint.
Local residents and business owners have welcomed the changes, citing improved safety, convenience, and a more vibrant town environment. Many have praised the Urban Development Department under Kitui Municipality for its effective implementation and responsiveness to community needs.
As more sections of the town receive attention, the facelift is beginning to reflect the Governor’s broader vision for modern, efficient, and livable urban centers across Kitui County.
Kudos continue to pour in for the Ministry of Lands and Urban Development and the Urban Development Department as they work tirelessly to turn this vision into reality—one project, one street, and one space at a time.
