Doha: Public Works Authority (Ashghal) announced that it will divert a 1.2 km section of the Dukhan Highway north service road to construct an interchange that will connect two major sections of the New Orbital Highway and Truck Route.
The diversion will commence on Wednesday, with an expected operation period of 3 months as new alternative roads will be provided later as per the new project status.
Upon completion, the interchange will serve as a critical connector for road users travelling on the New Orbital Highway and Dukhan Highway, facilitating movement between Doha, Dukhan, Al Khor and Salwa Road.
The proposed road change, which is located near Dehailiyat Interchange in the Umm Al Afai area, has been designed in coordination with the General Directorate of Traffic.
