Galfar Engineering, a multi discipline engineering and construction company, has announced that it has begun work on the Izki-Nizwa road dualisation project in Oman.

The project will see expansion of the existing road from Qaroot South Roundabout in Izki, passing through Birkat Al-Maouz, and ending at Farq in Nizwa.

The scope of work for Galfar includes construction of 10 new roundabouts and upgradation of two existing ones to improve traffic flow.
