KUWAIT: Minister of Public Works Dr Noura Al-Mashaan affirmed on Sunday the continued implementation of radical maintenance works on the Fourth Ring Road, as part of a nationwide plan to enhance Kuwait’s road infrastructure. In a press statement, Dr Al-Mashaan said the initiative falls under a broader framework of 18 major projects aimed at maintaining and upgrading roads across the country’s six governorates. The plan includes several new contracts dedicated to the maintenance of highways and key roadways, in line with international standards and specifications.

She emphasized that both radical and periodic maintenance works are essential for preserving the longevity of Kuwait’s roads, reducing the need for full renovation in the future. This approach not only improves the quality of services provided to citizens and residents but also ensures long-term cost efficiency. Dr Al-Mashaan reiterated the Ministry’s commitment to raising safety and security standards on the nation’s roads while maintaining sustainable infrastructure that meets global benchmarks. — KUNA
