Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan (5th R) and her Kenyan counterpart Uhuru Kenyatta (5th L) attend the launch ceremony of the Arusha bypass in Arusha, Tanzania, July 22, 2022. Tanzanian President Samia Suluhu Hassan and her Kenyan counterpart Uhuru Kenyatta on Friday officially opened the 42.4-km Arusha bypass, said a statement issued by the East African Community (EAC), a regional intergovernmental organization. The Arusha bypass is part of the regional Arusha-Holili/Taveta-Voi road that links northern Tanzania to the Kenyan port city of Mombasa. It is the first phase of a project that was constructed to decongest traffic in Arusha, where the EAC headquarters is located, and Moshi towns in Tanzania, in addition to promoting intra-regional trade.
