Nabeel Jreiri, director of the Execution Department at Gam, said the roads network project was on schedule and will be finalised simultaneously with the completion of Crown Prince Hussein Ibn Abdullah II’s square on the Airport Road.

Jreiri also pointed out that work at majority of  projects such as Al Hikmah intersection with Ajnadeen Street at Al Qweismeh region, was moving at a fast pace as per the instructions of Amman mayor Omar Maani.

He said that renovation of the Al Hikmah intersection with a space area of 10,000 sq m was currently underway.

'GAM is also working on expanding a full lane along the road extending from Marj Al Hamam towards the industrial zone in Wadi Al Seer, renovating Aal Al Beit Street in Badr Al Jadidah region, which is scheduled in phases, as it is the main entrance for the regions: Badr Al Jadidah, Dabouq, and the surrounding suburbs,' he added.-TradeArabia News Service
