rafidainscope - The special committee for resolving traffic bottlenecks and the General Traffic Directorate opened the road adjacent to the Republic Bridge towards Tahrir Square within the Al-Aqida School approaches after completing all its works and preparing it for vehicle traffic, following a closure lasting over two decades since 2003.


The opening of this road comes within ongoing government efforts to find alternative routes, expand traffic flow smoothness, and contribute to easing traffic density witnessed in the area, facilitating citizens' movement and improving the traffic reality in the capital, Baghdad.


This route is considered one of the strategic roads surrounding the center of the capital, which had been closed for security reasons and exceptional circumstances, before coordination was made to re-equip and reopen it again within the comprehensive campaign to relieve traffic bottlenecks across the capital's streets.
