Murang’a Road extends from the Globe roundabout to around Pangani and then becomes part of the Thika superhighway.

It is unclear why the road is named Murang’a, yet it leads to many other counties. The road is known for its old buildings and houses a rarely talked-about institution: the Kenya Institute of Curriculum Development (KICD), formerly the Kenya Institute of Education (KIE).

The signboard does not front the main road; you have to make a small left turn from town to see it. The institution has no grandiose buildings, another reason it is hard to notice.
