Trucks and other heavy vehicles on Bahrain’s major roads could soon be subject to reduced speed limits under a new proposal aimed at improving road safety following a string of serious accidents.
The initiative, spearheaded by Hidd councillor Mohammed Al Meghawi, was unanimously approved by the Muharraq Municipal Council and has now been referred to Municipalities Affairs and Agriculture Minister Wael Al Mubarak.
Mr Al Mubarak is expected to raise the matter with Interior Minister General Shaikh Rashid bin Abdulla Al Khalifa and Works Minister Ibrahim Al Hawaj for further evaluation.
