A popular “park and chill” spot in Tigoni, Limuru, has reportedly become inaccessible to motorists after a resident allegedly dug a trench along an area that had been used for roadside parking.
The development has sparked debate among motorists and residents, with some claiming the move was prompted by complaints over littering by people who frequently gathered at the spot.
A video circulating online shows the trench dug along the roadside, effectively restricting vehicles from accessing the informal parking area.
Motorists Frustrated by Changes
Some motorists expressed frustration over the development, saying the location had become a convenient place to park, meet friends and spend time together.
One motorist said stopping at the spot had become part of his routine, describing it as a familiar place where people could relax away from the bustle of town.
However, the complaints over littering appear to have contributed to tensions surrounding the use of the area.
The trench was reportedly already in place by the time motorists raised concerns about the changes.
Popular ‘Pack and Chill’ Spot
For some of the regular visitors, the location had evolved beyond simply being a place to park vehicles.
It had become an informal social spot where friends would meet, unwind and enjoy the surroundings.
The incident has since generated discussion online, with some people supporting efforts to address littering while others questioned whether restricting access was the appropriate solution.
The circumstances surrounding who owns or controls the roadside area, and whether the trench was legally dug, remain unclear.
