Doha: The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) will implement a temporary closure and diversion on two sections of Dohat Um Al Maa Street, East of Al Kharaitiyat Interchange (N8) on Al Shamal Road, near Ikea Store. The diversion begins tomorrow and lasts one year. The first section includes the closure of two lanes stretching over 140 metres on Dohat Um Al Maa Street (one-way section), south of the roundabout east of Al Kharaitiyat Interchange. Traffic will be diverted through a newly lane leading to Wadi Al Ebb Street.
The second section includes the closure of two lanes stretching over 650 metres on Dohat Um Al Maa Street (two-way section), north of the roundabout east of Al Kharaitiyat Interchange. Traffic from south will be diverted to a new link road between Al Shamal Road and Dohat Um Al Maa Street, in front of Ikea Store.
Traffic from Al Kheesa Interchange to Al Ebb will be diverted to Wadi Al Asma Street, then to Wadi Al Banat Street and onto Arab League Road, reaching Wadi Al Ebb Street.
Traffic from Ikea Store to Al Ebb will need to use Wadi Al Askar Street leading to Wadi Al Ebb Street.
The diversion is located within Zone 70 in Al Ebb, and required to carry out improvement works of Al Kharaitiyat Interchange as part of the North Road enhancement project. Ashghal will install signs advising motorists of the diversion.
