That is one of the things they should have made as part of the green park - a multi storey garage parking deck, that people could even use to reduce congestion in the CBD instead of thinking of a conference center.
Great video and update. We were there on Tuesday as well but we gave up. The news spread, I almost questioned myself if I read my own things. Pole to all those who had plans that April holidays nikupeleka watoto Uhuru Park.
I love the new Uhuru Park(Central Park) and i think if the park charges at least some fee for entry would be good to retain it's newly glorious status otherwise if its free its gonna go back to the bushman's cave as it had become since 2005. so i think its good if charged some cash whichby will at least take care of the maintenance of the area."just a suggestion, charges should vary from 300shs(adults)100-150shs(kids)weekends, 500shs(adults)200-250(kids) narmal days and probably 1000shs(adults)500shs(kids) for foreigners."

They have only been opening it during public holidays maybe that's how it will always be ,kilawakati holiday they say it's open for public but after they close
They need to charge a small to access the park. Charging fees to access recreation on public lands makes sense on many levels. Extra cash helps the management to maintain natural areas with direct help from the people who use them. It helps sites be less vulnerable to idlers/petty thieves. The fees can even be used as a tool to constrict the number of people flocking to overused areas.
Kwani all those years it was open And it was free it was not being maintained? Si it was! And it's supposed to have idlers! That's one of the purposes of the park. To give someone a place to just relax like they used to long ago. It has a fence and a gate now add Kanjo security inside and tosha. Let the public enjoy.
They should not announce it is open,,,, otherwise every Tom and Harry from kibera and kawangware will flog in there,,,,l know ppl will render this place disused in the shortest period
it was closed in september 2021. nms director badi promised nairobians it would be open before christmas that year. as far as i know, badi is not kenya kwanza
