The project features the development of four major road corridors spanning a combined length of 40 kilometers and includes 14 key intersections, 33 bridges, 5 tunnels, and 6 pedestrian bridges. Upon completion, the upgraded infrastructure will accommodate more than 950,000 vehicles per day, significantly enhancing traffic flow, improving network efficiency, and strengthening connectivity across Riyadh.
The fourth group includes the following projects:

- Najmuddin Al-Ayoubi Road (Western Section): Extending 13 kilometers, the project includes 3 main intersections, 3 bridges, and 2 pedestrian bridges, delivering a capacity of 200,000 vehicles per day.
The launch of this group advances the Main and Ring Road Axes Development Program, reflecting integrated, long-term planning for Riyadh’s road network. These projects will reduce daily travel times, resolve traffic congestion, increase mobility efficiency, and elevate the quality of life. By establishing a highly interconnected road network, the program will support the capital’s urban expansion, reinforce its global competitiveness, and accommodate preparations to host major global events.
