Tired of Traffic? Muscat Launches Study to Clear Congestion
Muscat Municipality has begun its third traffic study to reduce congestion and improve mobility across the city.


Muscat Municipality has launched the third phase of its traffic study to improve road conditions and ease congestion across the city. This critical initiative is designed to make commuting smoother and more efficient for Muscat's growing population.
International Firm to Lead Study
The municipality has hired Dar Al Handasah, an international consulting firm, to conduct the study over the next 433 days. Their work will focus on a detailed analysis of Muscat’s road network, identifying problem areas, and finding solutions for better traffic flow.
Key Goals of the Traffic Study
The study will focus on several key objectives. First, it will monitor current traffic conditions across Muscat. It will also evaluate how traffic patterns are evolving in areas with new urban developments and economic growth. Identifying congestion hotspots and providing practical solutions to improve traffic will be central to the study’s efforts.
Integrating Solutions into Muscat’s Growth Plans
The traffic solutions found through this study will be incorporated into the city’s development plans, addressing short-, medium-, and long-term transportation needs. This is part of Muscat’s broader vision to improve traffic management and build a more efficient transportation system for the future.
With the city’s population steadily increasing, this study aims to tackle the traffic challenges that come with urban growth and ensure smoother travel for everyone in Muscat.
