Road 2403, between Airport Roundabout and Departure Roundabout, will be fully closed to public from Tuesday (February 5) for a period of seven months due to work related to the Bahrain International Airport expansion.

The works also necessitate the closure of the entrance and exit to the parking area in front of the airport, said the Ministry of Works, Municipality Affairs and Urban Planning in its statement.
 
An alternative entrance and exit will be provided accordingly, stated the ministry which is implementing the closure of the strategic airport road in co-operation with the General Directorate of Traffic of the Ministry of the Interior.
 
As part of this arrangement, all the traffic coming from Airport Avenue towards Airport Roundabout will be diverted towards Kalifa Al Kabeer Highway, said the statement from the ministry.

The motorists will need to take a U-turn at the Falcon junction and then a right turn to the road leading to Movenpick hotel, it added.-TradeArabia News Service
