15 contractors were already choses (or 15 contracts) each worth a billion Riyals and awarded.  Hope it's true and they start the project soon!

Perfectly true but they are commited to it :-)What is the logic  inQatar hosting the World Cup?I am all for it - as my husband is in BD - so yay for him - but really?They are building 8 stadiums and they can't fill the one they have.They are trying to put Qatar on the map and they will :-/

If you have money, make a bridge along the mississippi...who cares!!

Do you think they can ever get that much traffic after the games to justify a Metro with 98+ stations?

 Regulars would prefer their cars anytime over the Metro for cummuting to their offices...and tourism would never pick up so much here so as to call for such a dense network of rail.

By anonymous• 4 Jul 2011 21:46

The bigger picture (way after the games) is being looked at  and they are building for the future - so 98 is a conservative estimate. 

By anonymous• 4 Jul 2011 21:42

thats right Cabbage, I feel 98 stations are a bit too much for a small country. It would make the city look congested but won't serve the purpose after the games are over. I would suggest a four track line connecting mesaieed to raslaffan via wakra, doha, lussail and al khor..

By anonymous• 4 Jul 2011 21:20

There are going to be at least 98 stations and at the moment talks are still going on to who wins the contracts to build the Metro and the development that goes with it.Only the best are being looked at.

By anonymous• 4 Jul 2011 20:59

Whatever they do with the flyovers, they need to plan in conjunction with the Metro. It's said there would be 98 stations in all...and hopefully one will be near Ramada..

the master urban and road planning, LOCALS?  In the first place who introduce roundabouts?  So, just wait, anyway, the traffic is still moving (slower compare if you walk)  Lol!

@ Manat2010,yeah that's because Ashghal isn't running the public works dept. in Bangalore!...& thank heavens for that!...yes India is poor,it's corrupt,blah blah but one needs a plan,a vision & properly qualified people to implement it NOT just billions from gas revenues with some clowns in charge who don't know their heads from their rear ends!...

ramada junction and jaidah r/a are next in line for the salwa road development contract (probably end of next year). currently work is half finished on decoration r/a and 2 more r/a's on the other side.in 4yrs time it should be smooth sailing starting from dohaland (mushreib) to lala land (saudi) along salwa highway.

QATAR streets/highways has to go through the same process.  ROAD WIDENING, after the completion of widening, DIGGING, ROUNDABOUT, TRAFFIC SIGNAL, REMOVAL OF SIGNAL, CONSTRUCTION OF FLYOVER.

i visited Bangalore last month i can see flyovers , subways  almost everywhere i am impressed with the transport system there. When compare to Bangalore Qatar or Doha have less flyovers and subways or roads i think.qatar has to invest roads to build a grt transport system.

it is useless eventhough we have wide roads, signals, flovers or r/a as long as rude and reckless drivers are on the road!

All drivers are jerks, except baldrick and britexpat. Dracula flies and DaRuDe runs.

Manat. One road at a time. There are enough roadworks here for a small continent let alone a tiny country. I'm sure Ashghal have a plan. Let them stick to it.
