The National Police Service (NPS) has announced a safety guideline ahead of the Rally Championship Safari Rally in Naivasha, assuring the public of safety and traffic preparedness.

In a statement by the National Police Service on Thursday, March 12, 2026, the NPS assured the public of traffic management and public safety measures.

This comes at the height of the 2026 World Rally Championship Safari Rally Kenya, which is scheduled to take place from 12th to 15th March, 2026, in Naivasha and surrounding areas.

“Pursuant to the National Police Service’s mandate of Law Enforcement and Public Safety, and working collaboratively in a multi-agency framework, the Service has put in place comprehensive security, traffic management and public safety measures ahead of the 2026 World Rally Championship Safari Rally Kenya, scheduled to take place from 12th to 15th March, 2026, in Naivasha and surrounding areas,” NPS said.

The National Police Service has deployed an adequate number of police officers across rally routes, spectator zones and key access roads to maintain security, manage crowds and support traffic control operations.

To ensure a safe, secure and successful Safari Rally, motorists and members of the public are advised that temporary traffic management measures and road diversions will be implemented along designated rally routes and surrounding access corridors during the competition period.

Consequently, motorists travelling along the Nairobi-Naivasha highway corridor without business in Naivasha are encouraged to consider alternative routes to ease congestion, including the Nairobi-Limuru-Flyover-Njabini-Ol Kalou-Ndondori-Lanet-Nakuru route and the Nairobi-Mai Mahiu-Narok-Nakuru-Western Kenya route.

“We call upon the rally drivers, teams, and spectators to cooperate with security officers and rally officials, adhere to traffic guidelines and observe safety instructions to ensure the successful and safe hosting of this globally renowned event, the 2026 WRC Safari Rally Kenya,” NPS added.

The National Police Service assured that it remains steadfast in its commitment to serving and protecting Kenyans, residents and visitors, while encouraging the continuous sharing of information on any suspicious activity.

“Reports can be made at any police station, to any law enforcement officer, or via our toll-free numbers: 999, 911, or 112. Information can also be provided anonymously using #FichuaKwaDCI on 0800 722 203, or via WhatsApp on 0709 570 000,” NPS stated.
