<\/strong>Jeddah gets a second ring road:<\/strong> KSA has inaugurated a second ring road in Jeddah worth USD 176 mn (SAR 660 mn) and spanning a total of 113 km, Saudi Gazette<\/a> reported on Friday. The project comes as part of the Kingdom\u2019s drive to upgrade its roads and boost connectivity with the region, the outlet said.<\/p>\n

The details: <\/strong>The road project has four lanes in each direction and includes five intersections, 11 bridges, and 50 crossings. A 31 km stretch of the road from King Faisal Road to the Prince Mohammad bin Salman Corridor on the Jeddah-Makkah Expressway will be managed by the Roads General Authority (RGA), with the remaining 82 km section operated under the jurisdiction of the Jeddah Mayoralty, the Saudi Gazette explained.<\/p>\n

The project comes as part of the strategic projects in Makkah,<\/strong> and looks to connect Jeddah\u2019s south with its north. It also looks to alleviate traffic congestion as it shifts the movements of trucks and heavy transport away from the city, while also boosting safety and bolstering road connections to enable economic and logistics movements, the outlet added.<\/p>\n

RGA is doubling down on safety: <\/strong>The authority eyes sixth placement in the global road quality index by 2030, while also looking to curb the numbers of deaths due to road accidents to five cases in every 100k via upgrades to safety. <\/p>\n

REMEMBER- <\/strong>Saudi Arabia kicked off eight new road developments worth SAR 495 mn<\/a> in January, in a bid to boost the Kingdom\u2019s connectivity and wider logistics competitiveness. The country also launched seven road infrastructure developments worth SAR 243 mn<\/a> in Al Madinah last year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
