Sharq Crossing project to be complete before WC 2022
The Public Works Authority (Ashghal) yesterday hosted an Industry Engagement Day to inform engineering and contracting firms of opportunities to participate in one of the country’s most technologically advanced infrastructure programme, Sharq Crossing.
Comprising three iconic bridges linked with two immersed tunnels and a marine tunnel interchange spanning Doha Bay, the Sharq Crossing project will connect Hamad International Airport with the city’s cultural district of Katara in the north and the downtown central business district of West Bay.
Work on the project is expected to commence in 2015 and complete by 2021.
A comprehensive presentation was given to participants, providing programme-specific information such as proposed works, time-frame, and key implementation considerations.
It also covered information on tendering requirements and the procurement strategy for the bidding process. The event provided a central platform for attendees to engage in discussions and open dialogue on the project with Ashghal’s project team
