In the first phase, all public service vehicles plying Ngong' road and Argwings Kodhek road will pick up and drop passengers at the Green Park bus terminal.
Three days later, on May 27, all PSVs plying Lang'ata road will pick up and drop passengers at the green park bus terminal.
The terminal has a capacity to accommodate 300 to 350 vehicles at any given time and up to 20,000 matatus in a day, according to NMS.
Last year, at least three test runs were conducted to identify challenges and loopholes in the Green Park terminus.
The test runs were aimed at observing how matatus will drop off commuters at the terminus.
The first run carried out on April 27, 2021, faced confusion and confrontations.
The second one took place on May 28, 2021.
