The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) has started the construction work on Mebaireek Interchange and upgrading of Khalid Bin Ahmed Interchange, known as Industrial Intersection, on Salwa Road.
The project aims to enhance traffic flow on Salwa Road for commuters heading to Industrial Area and the surrounding areas such as Ain Khaled, Al Murrah, New Fereej Al Ghanim, Muaither, Al Sailiya, Mebaireek and Abu Nakhlah. The project is due by the third quarter of 2022.
Mebaireek Interchange
Ashghal will build a new two-level interchange between Al Sailiya Interchange and Mesaieed Interchange, connecting Salwa Road and Mebaireek Street. The proposed interchange includes two main bridges, 330 meters long each, with several exit points, loops and accesses to local roads connected to the new interchange, facilitating traffic movement in all directions.
The works of the new intersection include construction of bypass roads and local roads with a total length of about 3km, in addition to construction of 3km of pedestrian paths and 3km of bicycle paths, whereas the area of tree plantation on both sides of the intersection is about 41,000 sqmt.
Mebaireek Interchange will contribute to improving traffic flow in the area, shortening journey time by 50%, accommodating more than 8500 vehicles per hour.
Construction of Mebaireek Interchange aims to provide direct free link for commuters through Salwa Road towards Mebaireek and Al Sailiya areas through service roads in both directions of Salwa Road.
