The building of a corridor meant to ease the movement of elephants around Mount Kenya is set to start by the end of the month.

The corridor will help elephants safely cross between Ngare Ndare Forest and Mt. Kenya National Reserve. The aim is to have this done without obstructing traffic flow along the Nanyuki - Meru road and other access roads in the area.

The project that has attracted the support of Virgin Atlantic CEO, Sir Richard Branson, the Dutch government and Safaricom, is expected to cost $1 million (Sh65 million).
