"The development works, worth Dh2.3 million, are part of the RTA Sharjah strategic plans to boost traffic flow on the arterial roads of the emirate and ensure the convenience of the public."
The project spans the development of the two-way road which connects Al Khan Lake Corniche with the Al Tawun road at the area adjacent to the Al Qasba Canal in Al Khan area, she added.
