NTSA Director General Nashon Kondiwa.

The National Transport and Safety Authority (NTSA) has suspended the issuance of new matatu SACCOs for two years, effective June 19, 2026.

The authority also froze the addition of new routes and extension of existing routes for one year but said the directive can be reconsidered in the event a new road is commissioned.

NTSA also said that there would be no modification or reconfiguration of existing licensed routes including pick up and drop off points for a period of one year.
