New in Kenya: bio-engineering for roads

Post date: Sep 21, 2010 7:51:29 AM

Kenya at a crossroads - Vetiver System now features in the Ministry of Roads manual for slope stabilization, drainage and gully rehab. Elise Pinners of Green Cycle Consulting (GCC) provided a modest introduction on Vetiver System for bio-engineering in the KERRA Training of Trainers, with a brief practical exercise in Kisii in April.

In May a full week's course was provided in Addis by the Ethiopian Roads Authority.

And now a full page about our demonstration on Nairobi Southern Bypass (in 'Programme & projects')!!!

Other extreme slope works in Kenya, see GCC.
