The Public Works Authority ‘Ashghal’ will divert traffic on Doha-bound carriageway between Al Kheesa Interchange and Al Kharaitiyat Interchange on the North Road for three months, to be in effect from Friday, 28 October 2016 till 28 January 2017.
In coordination with the General Traffic Department, a four-km long southbound segment will be shut between Al Kheesa Interchange and Al Kharaitiyat Interchange, and traffic will be diverted onto the existing northbound carriageway. The diversion will maintain three lanes with reduced width, for each direction of traffic flow, with the provision of protective safety barriers segregating the two directions of the carriageway.
The Collector and Distributor Left (CDL) road will be closed between the Al Kheesa Interchange and Al Kharaitiyat Interchange and new connections will be provided for accessing the loops on the westbound side of the relevant intersections. The traffic change is required to enable the on-going construction of a Doha-bound flyover, as part of improvements of Al Kheesa and Al Kharaitiyat junctions. Thus, for road safety, Ashghal will install the necessary signage, ordering all road users to abide by the traffic instructions and speed restrictions.
