Progress of Sultan Faisal's Musandam road
The Sultan Faisal bin Turki Road Project in Musandam Governorate aims to improve the road network between the governorate's states and subdivisions. It represents a strategic addition to enhance mobility and support the economy and tourism. The project is approximately 76% complete, covering a total length of 72 kilometers divided into three sections connecting Khasab, Luma Subdivision, and Diba, with the construction of 198 concrete drainage structures for rainwater runoff. Once finished, it is expected to significantly reduce travel time, with trips from Khasab to Diba estimated to take about 55 minutes instead of the previous two and a half hours. This will foster better internal connectivity and contribute to the region's economic and tourism development. The project was initiated under the directives of Sultan Haitham bin Tariq in February 2021, and a Royal Decree was issued in June 2025 to affirm its public utility status. It is being implemented in accordance with the latest technical standards to ensure safety and efficiency across various weather conditions.
