The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) has announced the conversion of the intersection of Al Mirqab Al Jadeed Street with Mohamed bin Qasim Street into a temporary two-lane roundabout, while keeping the same number of lanes available on Al Mirqab Al Jadeed Street, from Monday for a period of two months.
The conversion will be implemented in co-ordination with the General Directorate of Traffic in order to enable upgrade works on the intersection as well as the installation of new traffic lights as part of Improvement of Main Roads in Al Nasr Area Project, Ashghal has said in a statement.
The authority will instal road signs advising motorists of the temporary closure, and has requested all road users to abide by the speed limit and follow road signs to ensure their safety.
