Sources indicated that the project included the development of several important sites, such as the intersection of Al-Ghazali Road with the Fifth Ring Road, the Fifth Ring Road towards Jahra between the Airport Road and Al-Ghazali, the road linking Airport Road No. 55 with the Fifth Ring Road towards Jahra, the internal road between No. 2 and the proposed service road parallel to the Fifth Ring Road, the road linking the Fifth Ring Road and Al-Ghazali Road towards Shuwaikh, and the intersection of the fifth ring with Mohammed bin Al-Qasim Street.

The sources confirmed that the project aims to find innovative engineering solutions to reduce congestion and facilitate the movement of vehicles in the irrigation area. This will enhance the comfort of citizens and improve the level of service on the main and internal roads, such as the Fifth Ghazali Road and the circular road.
