Freeway Management System – Phase 1
SALWA INTERNATIONAL HIGHWAY - QATAR
Salwa Highway is connecting Doha City (the Capital of Qatar) with the Qatari – Saudi border zone near Bu Samra, some 95 kilometers to the southwest of Doha. Phase 1 involves the upgrade of approximately 85 kilometers of Salwa Road from just south of the industrial Area to 2 kilometers in advance of the border zone at Bu Samra.
Salwa Road has the distinction of being Qatar’s first International Road and thus, offers the opportunity to make a positive first impression of Qatar to many travelers. Implementing Intelligent Transportation Systems within the new road will reduce travel time and enhance operations in a safer and more efficient manner.
