Construction of the roads and cycle facilities is being managed by the Public Works Authority (Ashghal). The project is worth some US$149.5 million. Around 23km of road links will be constructed or improved as part of the project, while 9.5km of cycle lanes will be built and the work should be finished during 2023.
