The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) has announced a traffic diversion from Saturday onwards on Lehwaila Link Road, located 200m east of Lehwaila interchange (Interchange 66) on North Road in Madinat Al Kaaban.
The diversion will be in place for six months, Ashghal said in a statement.
The temporary diversion has been necessitated to carry out construction work on two bridges over Lehwaila Link Road which forms part of the Lehwaila Interchange 66, it said.
The new bridges are being built as part of the ongoing project to improve North Road.
Owing to the diversion, Lehwaila Link Road will be reduced from two lanes to one lane on each direction and the traffic will be diverted around the construction area.
