Isiolo leaders want the Lapsset Authority board to consider rerouting the project so as not to interfere with wildlife.
They want the Lamu Port-South Sudan-Ethiopia-Transport corridor to go through Garbatula in Boji, directly linking to Lodwar, and through Merti to Ethiopia.
Governor Godana Doyo, speaker Mohamed Tupi and MCAs said re-routing the project will also reduce costs to be incurred in setting up the corridor.
They said it will enhance eco-tourism, resolve border conflicts between Isiolo and neighboring counties and open up the Northern Rangeland for development.
