Road projects worth $266m are earmarked for Makkah in 2012, Saudi Minister of Transport Dr. Jabarah Bin Eid Al-Suraisiry has announced.

The most important projects being implemented in Makkah are the second and third ring roads, each of which will be 14km long, said Dr. Al-Suraisiry, who added that 8km of each road had already been completed.

A project is also being implemented to build a road exclusively for trucks, which will link South Ring Jeddah Road with the Makkah-Madinah Road. "This road will reduce the pressure on Haramain Road and the Jeddah-Makkah Road," said Dr. Al-Suraisiry.

Over the past few years, more than 5,900km of roads have been built in the Makkah area. Projects to build an additional 1,600km are already being implemented, said Dr. Al-Suraisiry. A total of 146 projects have been allocated for Makkah alone.
