His & Hers Q8

One of the main issues that we have to suffer from every single day is traffic during rush hours. Rush hour actually means high traffic and slow roads. However, I keep noticing that the traffic is high for one main reason and that is the exits and entries of different roads and highways.

Note that Kuwaiti roads have been built in the 50 years ago and I am not sure if they did take in consideration the amount of vehicles that increased during the years.

One of the change done recently is the Khaitan bridge exit to King Faisal Highway. That exit used to be agony and it made it worse up to the 6th ring road. However now they have changed the exit and the traffic starts at the 5th ring road.

When you notice a 2 lane exit from a highway, well you will notice that it suddenly becomes 5 lanes (thanks to the drivers who think they own the road).

See these fixes are great and from the tweet above removing traffic lights and creating bridges is a much better solution. *sometimes*.

One main road I hope they try to find a solution for is the 4th ring road (aka Hussain Al-Romey road). That road is one of the most chaotic roads in Kuwait. With entries to Jabriya and Hawally, traffic never ends here except in the early hours of the day. I think that road is a priority right now.

I like that the ministry are working on roads and I really hope they finish changing the road system quickly.
