Doha

The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) on Monday opened a portion of C-Ring Road to traffic, extending from the Jabor bin Ahmed intersection (Ramada junction) to the Al Kinana intersection.

Fully operational, this stretch of C-Ring Road has been widened from three lanes to four in each direction as part of phase four of the C-Ring Road development project in a bid to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion in the area.

Ashghal is currently working on phase four of the C-Ring Road project, which is expected to be completed by the end of the year. As part of this phase, works are taking place in both directions of Salwa Road after the Al Asiri intersection towards the Jabor bin Ahmed intersection and The Centre roundabout, which will become a signal-controlled intersection.

This phase also includes works on C-Ring Road starting from the Ramada junction until mid-way towards the Rawdat al-Khail intersection.

Ashghal is working round the clock to expedite the project. Work is taking place seven days a week, with the same number of labourers working day and night to complete the project by the end of December as scheduled.

All four phases of the C-Ring Road project are due to be completed in the second quarter of 2015.
