Tunnel Road, Sharm El-Sheikh

President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi opened, via video conference, the 342-km Tunnel Road, Sharm el-Sheikh with a width of 16 m (3 traffic lanes in each direction - paved pavements for each direction in addition to a central island of 33 m in width and 205 industrial undertakings in the culvert). 

The Tunnel Road was constructed to transfer traffic coming from Martyr Ahmed Hamdi Tunnel to Sharm El-Sheikh and vice versa, and to contribute to increasing the urban sprawl and creating new urban development complexes in addition to stimulating tourism in South Sinai.

It was also constructed to connect the road with the main cities. 4 sub-links with 2 lanes for each direction were created. The Tunnel Road is 22 km long (5 km / Ras Sidr - 5 km / Abu Zenimah - 6 km / Abu Rudeis - 6 km / Al-Tor). For providing road users with security and necessary services, 7 gates were built in (Oyoun Moussa - Ras Sidr - Abu Zenima - Abu Rudeis - Wadi Ferran - Al-Tor - Sharm El-Sheikh).
