Mosiria makes pedestrians who skipped Nyayo footbridge collect litter - the-star.co.ke

In Nairobi, Kenya, local authorities have implemented a new initiative where pedestrians who bypass the Nyayo footbridge are required to participate in a litter collection exercise. This measure aims to encourage compliance with pedestrian infrastructure usage and promote cleanliness in the area. The Nyayo footbridge, a popular crossing point, has been identified as a site of frequent littering by individuals opting to walk rather than use the bridge. Officials hope this approach will foster community responsibility and reduce environmental neglect. The policy reflects broader efforts to manage urban sanitation challenges in the capital city.
