The project in south Doha includes eight grade-separated interchanges that will provide new access to key roads and residential areas together with strategic links, including connecting the new Orbital Highway to the new Hamad International Airport.
Work includes construction of approximately 22km of a new dual carriageway with five lanes in each direction.
Construction is being expedited by simultaneous construction of the east and west corridors, being delivered respectively by Joannou & Paraskevaides (Overseas)–Avax (JV) and China Harbour Engineering.
Preliminary investigation works, temporary fencing and debris clearance have now begun at the project sites.
