The Public Works Authority, ‘Ashghal’, has announced the implementation of a temporary diversion of the northbound truck lanes on Al Majd Road at Bu Al Yawabi Interchange (Exit 27).
The diversion which is required to facilitate the installation of a Treated Sewage Effluent (TSE) network has been designed in coordination with the General Directorate of Traffic and will be in place for one (1) month starting Tuesday, 26 February 2019.
During this period, truck traffic heading northbound on Al Majd Road will be required to exit at Bu Al Yawabi Interchange towards Al Bahiya Interchange. At this interchange, they will need to make a U-turn heading back to Bu Al Yawabi Interchange and follow signs to exit towards Salwa Road heading northbound, as shown in the attached map.
The Public Works Authority will install road signs advising motorists of the traffic change and request all road users to abide by the speed limit which remains at 80 kph along the diverted route, and follow the road signs to ensure their safety.
