Egyptian Governor of Qalyubia, Dr. Eng. Hussam Abdel Fattah, has instructed authorities to urgently implement necessary traffic solutions to address congestion issues at the Kfar Shibin level crossing in Shibin Al-Qanater city. The governor emphasized the need for immediate action to achieve traffic flow and facilitate citizens' movement. This move comes after a meeting and on-site inspection held last Wednesday.
Following the governor's directives, traffic procedures were implemented on the ground in coordination with the Qalyubia Traffic Administration, Dr. Mohamed Laila, the head of Shibin Al-Qanater city, and relevant authorities. The implemented measures included installing traffic barriers totaling 200 meters in front of the Kfar Shibin level crossing, with 100 meters for each direction. This aims to organize vehicle movement and separate different directions.
The project also involved reorganizing entry and exit paths to and from the village by installing speed bumps and traffic barriers. These additions aim to regulate vehicle movement, prevent path interference, and achieve smooth traffic flow in front of the level crossing. These efforts are part of the governor's plan to alleviate traffic congestion in the area.
As part of the governor's directives to study traffic solutions in surrounding areas, a technical inspection extended to the Masrafawia level crossing. A proposal to establish traffic barriers approximately 120 meters long in front of the Beit Al-Sihah hospital was made. Additionally, a survey of the surrounding area within a 150-meter radius was conducted. This paves the way for completing the technical study and determining suitable solutions.
The Qalyubia Governor has directed the monitoring of traffic conditions after implementing the procedures and evaluating their effectiveness in reducing congestion and achieving traffic flow. He emphasized continued coordination between the traffic administration, local unit, and concerned authorities to ensure regular traffic movement and citizen safety.
The governor assured that his administration will continue to monitor various problems faced by citizens and work on swiftly studying and implementing suitable solutions on the ground. This aims to improve service levels and facilitate traffic movement across different cities and centers in the governorate.
The implemented measures reflect the governorate's efforts to address traffic issues and enhance the overall quality of life for its citizens. By tackling congestion hotspots and implementing effective traffic management solutions, the governorate aims to create a more efficient and safe transportation network.
