Motorists parking their cars in Nairobi central business district will be forced to dig deeper into their pockets after the County Government announced an increase in fees on Monday.

Car owners will pay Sh400 daily to park in the CBD beginning Wednesday, December 4th, representing a 100 percent increase from the current fee of Sh200. Buses that are not public service vehicles will be charged Sh1,000 per day to park in the city center.

The new rates are as a result of the enactment into law of the Finance Act 2019, which introduced new tax measures aimed at boosting revenue, County Director of Parking Services Tom Tinega said in a notice on Monday.

Motorists in other commercial centers categorized as Zone 2 will be charged Sh200 to park. Areas under Zone 2 include Westlands, Upperhill, Community, Ngara, Highridge, Industrial Area, Gigiri, Kilimani, Yaya Centre, Allsops, and Mwiki.

Others are Dagoreti, Kawangware, Kangemi, South B, South C, Nairobi West,Lang’ata, Madaraka, Makadara, Buru Buru, Umoja, Kayole, Embakasi, Donholm, Muthaiga, Milimani, Hurligham, Lavington, Karen and Eastleigh.

Motorists parking in commercial centers that are not listed under Zone 1 and Zone 2 will be charged Sh100. Owners of private cars will part with Sh7,000 for a monthly parking ticket, Sh18,000 for a three-month ticket, Sh32,000 for six months and Sh55,000 for one year.

“Kindly note that you will be required to top up the parking fee payment if migrating to a zone with a higher charge as will be applicable,” reads the notice.

Sonko - you don’t have to hike parking fees to Nairobi residents - as we speak you got a graft case over stolen billions that could be used to cover the parking fees. You can’t increase parking fees to have more money to steal. This kind of madness should be stopped by those MCAs you have bribed to just keep silent as you continue to abuse the residents of Nairobi. Well, it is all a reason well learned to ever elect another damn fool like you.
