Ministry of Works’ Roads Projects & Maintenance Director Raed Al Salah revealed that the Ministry completed maintenance and painting works to 6 main causeways out of a total number of 7 causeways. The BD1 million project began in June last year. ‘The two causeways located on Khalifa Al Kabeer Interchange with Sh. Hamad Causeway, together with Seef and City Centre Causeways and the Central Market Causeways are now completed,’ said Al Salah.

 

‘What remains now is the maintenance of Sh. Isa bin Salman Causeway; where the painting of the upper part of the causeway has been postponed in coordination with the General Traffic Directorate until the end of the present school semester, for it requires the closure of one way on each direction,’ he added. ‘Painting the causeway from underneath will also take time, as it should be done from the sea,’ explained Al Salah.
