The upgrade of the airstrip will help decongest :o the Kisumu International Airport.

 :D :D :D

Anyway. Just waste of resources. Kisumu to kakamega by road takes less than 45 minutes. Let us wait to see which airline will use that airstrip. Note I do not mention airport.

Yes; it will be hard to sustain the traffic; maybe twice weekly;
What would really work is an airport in Bungoma or Busia - to capture Uganda market.
Many eastern Ugandans would fly to Nairobi to there - then drive to Uganda.
Right now - you have to go to Entebbe. Endure traffic...then drive to eastern and northern Uganda.
The same for Northern Tanzania - building airport in Migori isebania..would capture many Tanzanians.

Anyway maybe county gov, NGOS and people from all way to Bungoma will use the airstrip.

Look fares will be about 8,000 - should not be so hard to fill up - a daily flight of 50 people. It's cheaper than fueling a car all the way to Nairobi.
