Partial Traffic Diversion on Zekreet Street

11/5/2020

Traffic on the closed part of Zekreet Street will be diverted to the opposite direction of the street

​The Public Works Authority ‘Ashghal’ announces that part of Zekreet Street will be closed on the southbound route towards Wadi Al Salamiya Street. The diversion will start on Saturday, 7 November 2020, for a period of five months, in coordination with the General Directorate of Traffic.

During this period, traffic on the closed part of Zekreet Street will be diverted to the opposite direction of the street, and it will be divided into one lane in each direction, instead of two, as shown in the above map.

The diversion aims to implement upgrading works on Zekreet Street as part of the Roads and Infrastructure Project in Al-Kharaitiyat (Package 4). This will help improve local traffic flow and upgrade infrastructure utilities in the area.

The Public Works Authority will install directional signs to alert road users of this traffic change. The Authority urges all commuters to abide by the speed limit and follow the road signs to preserve their safety.
