The minister was briefed on the JD12 million project, which connects the eastern Amman areas of Marka, Al-Hashemi and Tabarbour and Zarqa, will be completed in the third quarter of the year, according a ministry statement.

The Slaughterhouse Interchange consists of a main 280-meter bridge with two loop bridges at a length of about 400 meters for traffic coming from Marka to downtown Amman, and a bridge ramp for traffic from Zarqa to Marka, Tabarbour and Nakheel Street.

The new bridge will ease traffic movement to and from Amman and the Amman-Zarqa Rapid Transit Bus route, and ensure a smooth flow of vehicles in the previously congested locations.
