rafidainscope - The Ministry of Construction and Housing announced that significant progress has been made on the bridges crossing the Tigris River, as part of the first and second traffic decongestion initiatives. The Ministry's spokesperson clarified that the remaining projects,

including the second Sarafiya Bridge, Gaza Bridge, the second Jadriya Bridge, and the connection of the Suspension Bridge to the Two-Story Bridge, are witnessing tangible advancement in fieldwork. It was noted that the original plan aimed to complete these projects

early this year; however, delays were caused by economic challenges, the delayed approval of the federal budget, and insufficient cash liquidity to settle financial dues for previously completed works.
