The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) Friday announced the commencement of the QR587mn Roads and Infrastructure Project in Al Ebb and Leabaib (Package 4).
According to an official statement, the project is implemented at the east of Al Shamal Road at Al Kheesa Interchange and the west of Street 245.
The project’s geographical scope covers part of Al Ebb and Leabaib Area on the south of Al Kheesa Road as well as a part of Jeryan Jenaihat Area to its north.
The project is aimed at developing internal and main streets in the area such as Al Kheesa Road and providing pedestrian and cycle paths. Besides, the project will develop facilities including stormwater and foul sewer drainage networks to respond to residents’ needs.
Engineer Ali Mohamed al-Kaabi, Al Ebb and Leabaib Area projects manager at the Northern Areas Section in Ashghal’s Roads Projects Department, said that the project provides services for 1,049 residential plots in Al Ebb and Leabaib areas.
Infrastructure services will be developed while local streets will be enhanced in order to provide connectivity to the main road network. Public facilities such as schools, mosques and commercial complexes will be also developed.
“The project’s scope of works involves developing a road network with a total length of 32km equipped with road safety features and street lighting as well as road signs and marking. The project also features a 64-km-pedestrian and cycle lanes and will provide approximately 5,750 parking slots,” al- Kaabi said.
The project has a 29-km-long foul sewer network and 28km surface and groundwater drainage network along with a 17km Treated Sewage Effluent (TSE) network. In addition, new sewage pipelines along with a new system to ensure the flow distribution will be provided and connected with Qatar’s main sewage network with increased capacity in a bid to provide proper protection for the entire area against flooding and excess rainfall.
The upgrading works are divided into four geographical zones which will be carried out successively. The duration of each phase will be one year while the full completion of the project is scheduled for the third quarter of 2024.
Al-Kaabi explained that local materials and manufacturers will be relied on for most of the project's work in line with Ashghal’s Ta’heel initiative. These materials include gabbro, lighting poles and luminaires, directional signs in addition to sewage, surface water and rainwater drainage pipes, asphalt, concrete, rebar and prefabricated manholes. The local Qatari component that will be used on the project is planned to reach 85%.
The Roads and Infrastructure in Al Ebb and Leabib Project is being implemented by Quality Based Structures. It’s implemented as part of Ashghal’s Local Areas Infrastructure Programme for Areas and includes a number of road and infrastructure development projects across Qatar.
