Construction Begins on Road Project in Maidan Wardak’s Sanglakh Area

Construction has officially commenced on a new road project in the Sanglakh recreational area of Jalrez district in Maidan Wardak province. The initiative, launched during a recent ceremony, is intended to enhance regional connectivity and support local economic development.

The planned roadway will span 2.6 kilometers, linking the Jalrez district intersection to the border of Khudrot village. Project documentation lists the allocated budget at 77.7 million Afghanis, though initial announcements referenced a figure nearing 87 million Afghanis. Authorities expect the construction phase to conclude within nine months, after which the route will be opened to public traffic.

Maidan Wardak Governor Mullah Khairullah Khairkhwa attended the groundbreaking event and emphasized that the Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan continues to prioritize the development of public infrastructure. He stated that the project is designed to improve local transportation networks while generating employment opportunities for residents in the district. Officials from the provincial Public Works Directorate are overseeing the implementation, with progress to be monitored according to established engineering standards. The completion of the road is anticipated to facilitate easier access to the Sanglakh recreational zone and support broader regional mobility for both residents and visitors.
