The North Manama Causeway project has both short term and long term goals.
The short term goal falls within the Ministry of Works strategic roads master plan, and aims at easing the traffic movement along Al Fateh Highway at its intersections with King Faisal Highway and Shaikh Hamad Bridge, as well as providing access to the Bahrain Bay (BB) and Bahrain Financial Harbour (BFH).
The long term goal falls within the Bahrain Vision 2030 where the new flyover and roads act as an integral part of the planned highway network connecting Al Fateh Highway with the fourth crossing between Manama and Busaiteen.
