Mombasa is the second-largest city in Kenya, with a population of over one million people. Highways connect Mombasa to Nairobi and Dar es Salaam.
The highway between Nairobi and Mombasa is regarded as one of the most dangerous roads in the country due to the many hundreds of road deaths that have occurred in the last few years. To help improve health along this important corridor, North Star opened a Roadside Wellness Centre at Mombasa in March 2009 as part of a robust network spanning Kenya, and the entire Northern Corridor.
