The Public Works Authority ‘Ashghal’ announces the implementation of a partial traffic closure on University Street, on the left lane in both directions of the street for a distance of 80 metres near its intersection with Al Khafji Street, as shown in the attached map.
The closure starts on Thursday 26 November 2020 and will be implemented for a period of 6 months. During this period, two lanes on University Street will remain open to traffic in each direction.
