Description:
The Diba-Lima-Khasab road is one of the most vital projects in Musandam to connect the wilayats and villages of the governorate. Once complete, it will open new areas for urban, economic and commercial development in the governorate and revitalise tourism. Considered one of the most complex road projects ever to be undertaken in the Gulf region, the road will run through some of the most difficult terrain in Oman characterised by rising mountains and plunging wadis. The project was initially planned over the mountains with as many as nine tunnels, aggregating a total distance of 21km, in addition to 14 bridges, nine major junctions and 11 minor junctions, ballooning overall cost of construction. The 70-km-long road will link the Wilayats of Diba and Khasab via Lima. The project is set for completion in 2027.
