Great when built. Terrible disruption until this. Such is the path of progress.

Thelonius the pic is not of the highway at all...I know this project it's for Ashghal and it's for an intersection, not a highway...the highways will all be traffic light free

Never the less I've taken MANY highways that have traffic lights!!!...I dare say in the thousands!!!!

BTW the view of the highway shown is absolutely pathetic. :P It shows intersections at the same grade level. Should have been underpasses or flyovers to avoid intersections. :)

As far as i know, there are flyover proposed on Arch Roundabout, and 2 others before it reaches lusail city.
