$21m Upgrade of Aqrah-Qandil Road
By John Lee.
The Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) has begun work on expanding and upgrading the 30-kilometre road Aqrah [Akre] to Qandil into a dual-lane highway at a cost exceeding 28 billion Iraqi dinars [$21 million].
The project, expected to be completed within two years, links the sub-districts of Bajil and Dinarta, passing through 25 villages. According to a statement from the KRG, it is seen as a key infrastructure initiative to boost local commerce and enhance regional connectivity.
Thousands of jobs have been created through this project, which is being carried out by local labour. Officials say it will significantly support trade and economic activity in the area.
