The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) has announced the closure of the temporary roundabout on Al Khaleej Intersection (known as Al Mannai Roundabout) from February 8 to March 15.

The closure, being implemented in co-ordination with the General Directorate of Traffic, is to allow the conversion of Al Mannai Roundabout into an interchange as part of the B-Ring Road Development Project that is aimed at enhancing traffic movement and reducing congestion in the area.

During the closure, traffic from the White Palace Intersection and heading to Al-Marmar Palace Roundabout using Al Khaleej Intersection can take a U-turn on Al-Rayyan Road and then turn right towards Al-Marmar Palace Roundabout.

Traffic from Al-Marmar Palace Roundabout and going to Al-Diwan Intersection using Al Khaleej Intersection can turn right towards the White Palace Intersection then make a U-turn towards Al-Diwan Intersection as shown on the map.

Ashghal will install road signs advising motorists of the temporary closure and requested road users to abide by the speed limit and follow the road signs to ensure safety.
