Kisbi stressed, during the tour, “the necessity of
establishing road diversions on the site, and securing them with the necessary
public safety elements and warning signs, in order to divert traffic on them,
within the agreed time periods, to ensure traffic sustainability on the road,
and to start reconstruction work.”
He stressed that “it will be carried out along with
the completion of the reconstruction of the most affected parts, from Ras
Al-Naqab to Humayma, with a length of 17km, after the completion of the road
diversions.
Kisbi said that “the work in the project to complete
the reconstruction of the road has been divided into two grants, where the first
grant will be for the area between Al-Marigha, passing through Ras Al- Naqab
and reaching Dabat Hanut, while the second grant for the area will be between
Dabat Hanut and Humayma.”
Kisbi added that the ministry “did not neglect its
important social role, and in order to serve the local community, it employed
the region’s recent graduates through a system of mandatory employment to work
on the project.”
At the end of the tour, Kisbi praised the efforts made by
the workers on the project to ensure that the projected is completed within the
agreed timeframes.
