Double Carriageway for Amran-Aden Road, Section Taiz - Aden (153 km)

The objective of this project is to build an additional dual carriageway connecting the main towns along the axis Taizz – Aden.

The purpose of the new dual carriageway is to enhance this vital north-south communication link, to improve safety of the users, to remove bottlenecks and therefore to reduce time of travel between Aden, Sana`a and Amran. This is a strategic policy developed by the government of Yemen to facilitate the development of the whole country. Within the scope of this project Dorsch was retained to provide Consultants´ Services for the Feasibility Study and Detailed Engineering Design.
