During this closure, traffic coming 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. While traffic coming 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 in the above attached.
This closure aims at allowing the completion of converting Al Mannai Roundabout into an interchange, as part of the B-Ring Road Development Project, which aims to enhance traffic movement and reduce congestion in this area.
The Public Works Authority will install road signs advising motorists of the closure. Ashghal requests all road users to abide by the speed limit, and follow the road signs and the ground markings to ensure their safety.
