What’s happening?
The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) announced that from Today, August 18, at midnight, until Sunday, August 31, 2025, a partial closure will take place at the signalized intersection of Jassim bin Thani bin Jassim Al-Thani Street and Ras Al Nouf Street. The closure specifically affects traffic heading towards Doha, so drivers will need to use alternative routes during this period.
Why it matters
The closure is being carried out to complete essential maintenance works, ensuring smoother and safer roads for everyone in the long run. While it might feel like a short-term inconvenience, drivers can avoid frustration by planning their routes ahead of time. So if this intersection is part of your daily commute, be sure to set aside a little extra travel time or check out alternate roads.
