(250521) -- NAIROBI, May 21, 2025 (Xinhua) -- An antelope grazes under a viaduct of the Nairobi-Malaba Standard Gauge Railway in Nairobi National Park, Kenya, on May 16, 2025. Constructed by China Road and Bridge Corporation (CRBC), the Nairobi-Malaba Standard Gauge Railway is a key component of the Kenya Standard Gauge Railway Project with a total length of about 960 km upon completion. According to Yu Fujia, assistant general manager of CRBC's Kenya operations, the Nairobi-Malaba railway incorporates 14 ground-level wildlife crossings, 150 underground culverts, and six km of noise-dampening overpasses with light-permeable barriers, forming a three-dimensional corridor for animals.
