Doha: Public Works Authority (Ashghal) on Thursday will permanently divert a 1.2 kilometer section of East Industrial Street, located to the south of the Industrial Area, with the alternative route to become the new permanent access to Barwa Al Baraha and the surrounding area.

Road users that are travelling south from East Industrial Street that need to access Barwa Al Baraha are advised to drive directly south from Roundabout 52, continue along the newly constructed ramp bridge before turning right onto the service road towards Barwa Al Baraha.

Road users that need to exit Barwa Al Baraha and travel towards Doha are advised to head north on East Industrial Street and continue along the existing road before turning right at their first exit. This exit will direct road users to a newly constructed loop ramp that will provide direct access towards the Umm Al Seneem area and Doha.

The diversion is required to enable the completion and connection of a 22-kilometer expressway project in Doha's south.

Ashghal advised that there will be no reduction in the number of lanes available on the new route.
