Makkah’s Al-Sail Street development project completed

MAKKAH: Authorities in Makkah said work on the intersection linking the Fourth Ring Road and King Faisal Road, also known as Al-Sail Street, has been completed and is now operational.

Officials described the project as part of broader efforts to upgrade the city’s transportation network and infrastructure, enhancing traffic flow and improving services for residents and visitors.
