Taxpayers will lose over Sh1.4 billion after a tribunal ordered the demolition of the Pangani footbridge on the Thika Superhighway within 90 days for encroaching on a private property without compensating the owner.

The Land Acquisition Tribunal found that part of the footbridge was erected on a portion that was not part of the land acquired by the Kenya National Highways Authority (KeNHA) for the Thika Road project.
