The project is being implemented in partnership with Al Omaier Trading and Contracting Company, said Galfar in a statement.

This project stands as one of the most important connecting roads between the governorates of Oman, contributing to the strengthening of the logistics sector, and the development of economic and social mobility, it stated.

Lauding the Ministry of Transport, Communications, and Information Technology for the project, Galfar said with this vital project, it looks forward to working closely with all stakeholders to deliver this project as per the planned schedule, contributing to sustainable development and strengthening the national road network.

This strategic project aims to complete the dual carriageway from the Wilayat of Adam in Al Dakhiliyah Governorate to the Wilayat of Thumrait in Dhofar Governorate, building on the 317 km already developed to the north.

Once completed, the route from Muscat to Dhofar will become the longest dualised road in the sultanate, it added.
