1. SGR has completely bypassed Nakuru. Why on earth would you put your money in a town not on the corridor that will determine Kenya's economic future for the next 150 years? SGR like the lunatic express is not a game changer. Road transport(plus technology) will always be more dominant. In Europe I see places which are more developed were on the old Roman roads. Trading routes rarely change even China is going back to the old silk road. Plus I don't think SGR will go beyond Naivasha in my lifetime so Nakuru becomes the logistics centre

Global statistics on inland cargo transportation are available online. Except for Russia, in most countries that embrace free market economics, you'll find that road cargo transportation is dominant. If SGR service is subsidised, then it can compete.

This was not a contested point. Naivasha too has the same road Nakuru will be using passing through it so there is no added advantage to Nakuru vis-a-vis Naivasha whether the new road is built or not. Plus Naivasha has the added advantage of Old Naivasha road towards more SEZs and Industrial Parks alongside the SGR in Suswa and beyond. So as we can see, Naivasha will benefit from the new road, new SGR passenger station, new ICD, new SEZ and new Industrial Park at Olkaria. Besides the same new road hitting Nakuru, what is the dying city's value proposition to say a leather goods manufacturer from Shenzhen who would rather be based in Naivasha SEZ (zero duties, cheap power, SGR at his doorstep) who needs to export his goods as fast as possible and as competitively as possible to 5th Avenue New York? He would have to be crazy to pick Nakuru over Naivasha. Wukan mentions Athi river's EPZ in the same breath as an SEZ Laughing out loudly but there is a world of a difference between the two. Especially when China Inc. will be the prime SEZ tenant.

Swenani,
I think with Naivasha the best bet is just go on the ground and scout for oneself .. door to door asking local wazees what is available but only if you are dare devil like some of us. There are plenty of signboards littering the prime areas (old Naivasha rd, Moi South and North Lake roads etc)advertising everything from 1/8th acres to 100+ acres. The kawaida land sellers like 5th Quarter, Longonot Gate etc present on social media are also good for smaller parcels with less due diligence headaches but of course that comes at a bigger price.
