Minister of Transport Kamel al-Wazir on Monday inspected progress on the the comprehensive development project for the Ring Road around Greater Cairo.

This tunnel is in one direction from the area in the direction of New Cairo, while the bridge is used for those coming from New Cairo to Marg area.
A bridge was completed above the al-Tawarei (emergency) axis, linking between the Mehwar road and the Ring Road to serve the Gesr al-Sues and al-Salam areas residents.
