An aerial image captures a congested urban scene centered on the Machakos Country Bus Station and its surrounding road network, including Landhies Road, in Nairobi, Kenya. The sky is partially obscured by scattered white cumulus clouds, with a hazy cityscape visible in the distance. The foreground depicts a multi-lane roadway experiencing significant traffic congestion. Numerous private vehicles, including sedans, SUVs, and minivans of varying colors (white, silver, red, blue, green, black), are intermixed with public transport buses and Matatus (minibuses) in shades of red, blue, orange, yellow, and green, indicating dense traffic flow. Pedestrians are visible on sidewalks, at crossing points, and navigating alongside the vehicles. Adjacent to the road, the expansive Machakos Country Bus Station terminal complex is observed, featuring multiple levels and dozens of parked and active buses, predominantly white, blue, and red. Substantial pedestrian activity is evident throughout the terminal area. A large, multi-panel billboard, primarily green, vertically separates the main road from the bus station structures. Several mature trees with dense, dark green foliage are interspersed along the terminal perimeter and road edges. The background reveals an extensive urban landscape comprising numerous commercial and residential buildings and some industrial structures, receding into a light atmospheric haze.
