Ashghal completes Al Kharaitiyat, Izghawa roads & infra projects
Tribune News Network Doha The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) has announced the completion of works of the third package of the Roads and Infrastructure Development Project in Al Kharaitiyat and Izghawa, which the Authority is implementing within four development packages with the aim to enhance road network and infrastructure services to serve citizens' lands in the area. Engineer Abdulla Al-Naemi, head of North Areas Section of the Roads Projects Department at Ashghal, said that the third package of the project aims to achieve extensive improvements which, upon completion, will serve about 1,383 plots in the area through the development of internal streets and construction of shared pedestrian and cycling paths, in addition to developing infrastructure facilities such as rainwater and groundwater drainage networks and other networks to provide integrated infrastructure services and improve the quality of life of the area residents. Regarding the work that was implemented within this package, Engineer Jassim Kano, project engineer, explained that this package of the Al Kharaitiyat and Izghawa project provides about 42 km of roads, with the installation of 1,783 street lighting poles and traffic safety elements, and the provision of 7,300 parking spaces designated for cars. Within the scope of the project, infrastructure networks were also developed, which include a surface and groundwater drainage network with a total length of 33 km, a treated water network with a length of 13 km, in addition to a wastewater drainage network with a length of 32 km, in addition to 6.5 km of power line works and 19 km of telecommunications lines. The project's planting works cover an area of 9,250 square metres, and the shared pedestrian and cycling paths will extend over 84 kilometres. Work is currently being carried out to complete home sewer connections and some tree planting works, in addition to coordinating with the service authorities in the country for the delivery of the project and some periodic maintenance works. Local materials and manufacturers were relied upon in most of the project work, with the local component reaching 70 percent of the total materials used, as local Qatari sources were relied upon, which include, for example, lighting poles, drainage pipes, precast manholes, electrical cables, directional signs, and interlocking. To minimise inconveniences that may result from development works to residents to the greatest extent possible, the geographical scope of the project was divided into four areas to be worked on in successive phases when commencing the project works.

Qatar's Ashghal commences roads, infrastructure development in Birkat Al Awamer
Doha, Qatar: The Public Works Authority 'Ashghal' started the implementation of the Roads and Infrastructure Development Project in Birkat Al Awamer. The project serves the logistics zone "Manateq" of Qatar Economic Zones Company in the area. It aims to develop the internal streets and enhance traffic safety, in addition to developing infrastructure facilities to meet the requirements of the logistics zone and the expected future urban growth. The project is located in Zone 91, approximately 41km South of Doha. The project works have been divided into four geographical areas that will be implemented successively to reduce the inconvenience caused by the construction works to road users in the area. Eng. Mohammed Abdulkareem AlYafei, Project Engineer at the South Areas Section of Ashghal's Roads Projects Department, explained that the project, scheduled to be completed in Q3, 2027, will provide services to about 880 subdivisions in the logistics zone in Birkat Al Awamer area, through providing infrastructure services such as rainwater drainage networks as well as road networks and internal streets that will enhance traffic flow and provide connectivity with public utilities. Project works include constructing and developing a road network with a length of 24km, with the provision of traffic safety elements such as street lighting systems and poles, and directional and road signs. A 5-km surface drainage network will be constructed, as well as a 27,000-cubic-metre rainwater storage lagoon for emergency purposes to protect the area and use rainwater for irrigation purposes. © Dar Al Sharq Press, Printing and Distribution.

Qatar's Ashghal completes main works of Al Foroush, Al Kharaitiyat
Qatar - The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) has completed the main works of the Roads and Infrastructure Development Project in Al Foroush and Al Kharaitiyat (Package 1). According to a statement from Ashghal, this was in response to the requirements of urban expansion in Al Foroush and Al Kharaitiyat. The geographical scope of the project covers part of the area located specifically North of Riffa Street, West of Hazm Al Themaid Street Road and West of Al Mazrouah Road. Engineer Rashed al-Zeyara, head of Doha City Section at Ashghal's Roads Projects Department, said that the first package achieves extensive improvements that currently serve about 411 plots in the area. The project will serve the population growth in the future through the development of internal streets and infrastructure facilities such as drainage networks, rainwater drainage, surface water and others to provide integrated infrastructure services and improve the quality of life of residents. A total of 17.8km of roads were developed while 655 street lighting poles and traffic safety elements were installed. Works encompassed the development of infrastructure networks including a drainage network with a total length of 19km, a surface water and rainwater drainage network with a length of 2.7km, and a potable water network with a length of 10.4km. The remaining works are currently being completed, which include installing signboards and lighting poles in some streets and implementing some works related to electrical cables. The Ashghal official noted that the high groundwater level in the project area required studying the most appropriate dewatering and drainage solutions before commencing construction work. "The rocky nature of the area's soil has delayed the completion of some excavation work,' he said. 'The work required implementing excavations at a depth of approximately 22m below the ground, which required increasing workers' safety procedures, in addition to the need to coordinate with many State institutions to complete infrastructure development work.' Local materials account for 80% of the total materials used in the project. These include lighting poles and bulbs, drainage pipes, pre-cast manholes, electrical cables, directional signs, and interlock. This is within the Ashghal's Ta'heel initiative to support local manufacturers. © Gulf Times Newspaper 2022 Provided by SyndiGate Media Inc. (
