Al Mafraq-Al Ghweifat road 35% done

Abu Dhabi General Services Company (Musanada) said it has completed 35 per cent of the 328-kilometre Al Mafraq-Al Ghweifat road project, at a cost Dh5.3 billion.

The road project, which will be completed by 2017, links cities of the Western Region and eases flow on the international highway.

Faisal Al Suwaidi, Director-General of the Main Roads at the Department of Transport (DoT), said the DoT in partnership with Musanada prepared the final designs of Al Mafraq-Al Ghweifat international road, a main land artery that links the UAE with neighbouring countries.

Omer Al Mansouri, Acting Director of Roads Department, at Musanada said the government of Abu Dhabi is keen to boost the quality of infrastructure through approval and implementation of projects that support development, including Al Mafraq-Al Ghweifat road.
