A three-day closure between the Airport Street and Al Thumama Intersection on the E-Ring Road in both directions will be in place from Thursday to install a pedestrian bridge.
The bridge is a part of the interim upgrade of E-Ring Road and Najma Street project. Traffic through the stretch will resume at noon on February 12.
During the closure, motorists heading from the Airport Street to Al Thumama Intersection on the E-Ring Road can use Oqba Bin Nafie Street and the alternative local roads (as shown on the map).
Those going from Al Thumama Intersection towards the Airport Street on the E-Ring Road can use Najma Street and Al Hadara Street to reach their destinations.
The pedestrian bridge aims to enhance traffic safety and enable pedestrians to cross the E-Ring Road to reach commercial buildings in the area. In addition it also seeks to reduce accidents and improve transportation between the Old Airport area (Area 45) and Al Rawda (Area 47).
The bridge is provided with elevators on both sides, which can accommodate a large number of users, including people with special needs.
