The Heritage Roundabout in Mamoura features a model of traditional castle, built through soil stabiliser technology.
The Ministry of Municipality and Environment (MME) has launched the first stage of decorating roundabouts using soil stabiliser technology. Mohamed Ali al-Khouri, director, MME department of public parks, said work on a roundabout at Mamoura area has been completed and it has been named Heritage Roundabout. A model of a heritage castle has been built through the soil stabiliser technology. The department has a plan to decorate several other roundabouts and main streets through this technology. The new experiment came as an initiative of Future Soil Stabiliser Company, a Qatari company. Sheikh Abdulla bin Hamad bin Mubarak al-Thani, vice-chairman of the company, said the technology has great potential for decorating many public areas, in a way that reflects Qatari heritage.
