Oman road project nears completion, ahead of schedule

Oman's Ministry of Transport, Communications and Information Technology is advancing the Sultan Thuwaini bin Said Road rehabilitation project ahead of schedule, with an 89.46% completion rate. The road spans from the A’Sharqiyah intersection to the Farq intersection in A’Dakhiliyah Governorate.

The project, valued at over RO 10 million, focuses on rehabilitating the road and its elements, repairing damaged sections, and enhancing traffic safety. These improvements are intended to boost the road's operational efficiency and service level, ensuring it can handle traffic volume effectively.

Modern engineering techniques, such as "Geogrid" technology, are being employed to improve pavement layer efficiency and extend the road's lifespan, adhering to best engineering practices. The initiative is expected to enhance connectivity between A’Dakhiliyah and neighboring governorates, improve traffic flow, and bolster the Sultanate's transport network, aligning with the ministry's goal of developing sustainable infrastructure to meet Oman's developmental and economic needs.
