The short answer
A highway and rail junction town between Nairobi and Mombasa, trading on transport traffic and serving as the gateway to Tsavo tourism. Long-distance transport traffic runs all day and night; Tsavo tourism seasons lift hospitality. What differs locally is the trading pattern rather than the paperwork: this page holds the commercial picture, and the eTIMS requirements themselves stay on the pages that cite KRA for them.
