Diversion at Dahl Al Hamam R/A
The Public Works Authority has announced new traffic diversions on the streets leading to Dahl Al Hamam Roundabout.
During the diversion period, only two lanes will be open to traffic on all streets leading to the roundabout, the middle and right lanes. Ashghal has built a new temporary outer roundabout to ensure the safety of road users around the road works, as shown on the attached map.
The new diversions on the streets leading to Dahl Al Hamam Roundabout will be implemented from today by diverting traffic on Street 245, also known as Arab League Street.
Traffic diversion on Al Markhiya Street, from Lejbailat Intersection to Dahl Al Hamam Roundabout will start tonight and diversion on Al Markhiya Street from Dahl Al Hamam Roundabout to Landmark Mall will start tomorrow night.
All diversions and the new temporary outer roundabout will be open to traffic after Thursday and will last a month and a half.
Road diversions are to facilitate works on converting Dahl Al Hamam Roundabout to a signal-controlled intersection, and provide four lanes in each direction on Al Markhiya Street and three lanes in each direction on Street 245.
Development works will enhance traffic by providing three additional lanes turning left and a side lane to turn right at each signal in each direction.
Pedestrian crossings will also be built to ensure safety of road users. Ashghal will install road signs to advise motorists about the diversion. It also requests all road users to abide by speed limits and follow road signs to ensure their safety.
