The Ministry of Works has begun implementing a road development project on Street 2904 in Block 329, located in the Salmaniya area of the Capital Governorate.

According to Engineer Hamad Ibrahim Bado, Director of Roads Projects and Maintenance at the Ministry of Works, the project covers a 600-metre stretch extending from the intersection with Salmaniya Street in the north to King Abdulaziz Street in the south. The road runs adjacent to the Salmaniya Medical Complex and Gulf University on its western side.

He said the project is part of ongoing efforts by the ministry to upgrade Bahrain’s road network and enhance traffic safety in key urban areas. It is designed to improve traffic flow, regulate vehicle movement, increase and organise parking spaces, and reduce random and illegal parking, thereby easing congestion and improving overall road safety.

The scope of work includes reconstruction of road infrastructure, relocation and protection of underground utilities, installation of a drainage network, and the construction of sidewalks and parking bays. The project will also include the installation of road signs and traffic guidance systems.
