The General Traffic Department has announced a temporary closure of Al-Mughira Bin Shuba Street in Salmiya starting Monday, July 28. The affected stretch extends from the intersection with Hamad Al-Mubarak Street to the Passports Roundabout. The closure is scheduled to last two weeks, as part of a planned road maintenance project.

Motorists commuting through the area are strongly urged to use alternative routes to avoid traffic congestion. The General Traffic Department has issued guidance to ensure smooth flow and has deployed traffic personnel to manage diversions effectively.

The road closure is expected to impact daily commutes in Salmiya, especially during peak hours. Residents and visitors are advised to plan their journeys accordingly and follow all posted traffic instructions and signs to minimize delays.

The closure is part of a broader effort by the Kuwait Municipality and the Public Works Ministry to improve infrastructure and ensure safer road conditions across the country. Similar maintenance projects have recently taken place in other key areas to address wear and tear caused by weather and heavy traffic.

For residents who frequently travel in and around Salmiya, staying informed about road closures and maintenance work is essential. Authorities recommend following official traffic alerts and planning routes in advance to avoid unexpected delays.

This proactive measure reflects the government's ongoing commitment to maintaining and enhancing road safety and infrastructure efficiency in Kuwait.
