WORK on the 40km-long ‘Friendship Causeway’ linking Qatar and Bahrain is to begin by May next year and the project is likely to be completed in 2011.
A memorandum of understanding (MoU) was signed on Thursday in Doha between the Qatar Bahrain Causeway Foundation (QBCF) and the consortium of companies that would execute the over $2bn project.
“Work will start some seven months from now,” QBCF chairman Ahmad Hassan al-Hammadi announced after signing the MoU.
