Doha: The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) will partially open Fereej Al Ali Intersection known as Al Tadamon Intersection on D Ring Road.
The road will be open to traffic in all directions following the upgrade and expansion work on Friday, June 18, 2021.
This was part of the D Ring Road development and expansion work that will enhance traffic capacity and reduce traffic congestion in the area.
Fereej Al Ali Intersection connects traffic between the D Ring Road and Rawdat Al Khail Street.
Last month Ashghal partially opened the Lulu Intersection and Nuaija Intersection on D-Ring Road to traffic.
The upgrading works of the D-Ring Road aims to improve traffic on the three main intersections of the D-Ring Road to provide free flow of traffic by increasing the number of lanes on Fereej Al Ali intersection (Al Tadamon Intersection), Nuaija Intersection and providing free flow traffic on Lulu intersection.
The project upgrading works include the construction of 3.5-km rainwater drainage tunnel to improve the efficiency of drainage networks in the area. The project works will also include the construction of shared pedestrian and cycling lanes along the 4.5 km D-Ring Road on both sides.
The Qatari heritage of the area surrounding the project, known as Rawdat Al Khail, was considered during the design phase, elements inspired from the Qatari environment will be featured on murals inside the tunnel that will be built as part of the project.
Upgrading works on Fereej Al Ali Intersection (Al Tadamon Intersection): A three lanes in each direction underpass will be constructed on Fereej Al Ali Interchange, to provide free traffic on D-Ring road. The existing signalised junction will be improved, by increasing the number of lanes from three to four lanes in each direction at the intersection with Al-Montazah Street, which will significantly increase the traffic capacity of the intersection and provide free-flow traffic.
