China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC)
China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC) is a major Chinese state-owned enterprise specializing in infrastructure development and construction. With a significant global presence, CRBC has been involved in numerous projects across Africa, including Kenya. The company is known for its expertise in road and bridge construction, as well as railway projects.
One of CRBC's most notable contributions in Kenya is its involvement in the construction of the Standard Gauge Railway (SGR), a major modern railway project. The SGR, which connects the capital city, Nairobi, to the port city of Mombasa, has been a significant milestone in Kenya's transportation infrastructure. This railway line has greatly improved the efficiency and speed of cargo and passenger transportation between the two cities, promoting economic growth and regional integration.
The construction of the SGR was carried out in phases, with CRBC responsible for the first and most critical phase. The railway line has since extended to other parts of Kenya, further enhancing the country's railway network and accessibility.
In addition to the SGR project, CRBC has been involved in other road and bridge construction projects in Kenya. The company's expertise and experience in building large-scale infrastructure have played a crucial role in Kenya's efforts to develop its transportation and logistics sectors.
