| Project Detail |
Under the project, a 26 km-long section of the Beirut–Damascus Road connecting Hazmieh (a Beirut suburb) to the town of Saoufar will be widened and upgraded to a divided, six-lane dual carriageway, including lighting and traffic signs. Three new sections totaling 36.5 km and connecting Saoufar to Masna’a will be constructed and paved. Other related works entail the construction of overpasses, viaducts, drainage structures, interchanges and concrete barriers.
Once completed, the project will facilitate the transport of goods for export, improve economic activity and encourage trade opportunities between Lebanon and Syria. |
