Sharjah: The partial closure of Khalidiya Bridge for repairs is expected to cause major traffic diversions on Al Arouba Street. The bridge is a vital link for people commuting between Rolla, Ajman and Dubai.
The Sharjah Public Works Department announced yesterday that it would partially close the Khalidiya and Sharjah bridges to carry out renovation work beginning in the first week of July.
Dh8 million plans
The work on the two bridges, located close to Al Jazeera Park, will cost around Dh8 million.
Eng Amal Al Khamis, Acting Director of the road maintenance department for the General Directorate of Infrastructure in the Public Works Department, said that the work is part of a comprehensive plan to complete correctional and preventive renovation work on roads and squares in Sharjah.
Eng Sulaiman Al Hajiri, Director-General of Road Projects, said the two bridges were built in the late 1970s. The Public Works Department called on motorists to exercise caution.
