MUSCAT, January 24, 2021
Oman's Ministry of Transport, communications and IT has announced the opening of the Suwaiq-Al Hoqain dual carriageway project following its successful completion.
It boasts a dual carriageway with two 3.75-m-wide lanes on each side, 2.5-m-wide external asphalt road shoulders and 1.5-m-wide internal asphalt road shoulders, reported Times of Oman.
The 20-km-long project will fully utilise the strategic Batinah Expressway by establishing upgraded road links between Al Batinah expressway with the Al-Batinah dual carriageway and construct new interchanges to keep up with the growing traffic between North and South Al-Batinah Governorates, it added.
