Key Takeaways
Public transportation remains the most popular mode of travel for the majority of Kenyans, with buses being the preferred choice for long-distance, upcountry trips. According to the Economic Survey 2024 by the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS), the road transportation sector generated Ksh2.6 billion in 2023, with passenger traffic contributing Ksh1.4 billion. However, the survey also highlighted the risks involved, reporting 9,960 road accidents in 2023, which resulted in 10,762 serious injuries.
