Today, we inaugurate the Kechene\u2013Ambassador\u2013Gihon\u2013 Irreecha\u2013Bambis Riverside Development, a 351-hectare, 10-kilometer corridor advancing our vision of a modern, green, and inclusive Addis Ababa.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With pedestrian walkways, cycling lanes, and integrated transport infrastructure, this development creates a more accessible and liveable urban environment. Its children\u2019s playgrounds, plazas and amphitheaters, sports facilities, and eight fountains and water features offer new spaces for recreation, social interaction, and community life. Parking facilities and eight electric vehicle charging centres, capable of charging over 100 vehicles simultaneously, further strengthen its modern infrastructure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Through river management, soil and water conservation, and riverside green spaces, we are bringing environmental restoration together with urban transformation. Equally important, we are expanding economic opportunities. A dedicated market centre enables residents who previously lived along the river corridor to produce, display, and sell handicrafts, while an agricultural produce mall connects agricultural producers with markets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our vision is to build a city that is not only beautiful but also productive and inclusive; a city that serves its people today and generations to come!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
