Shahid Mousavi highway reduces the traffic load of Azadegan

The mayor of Tehran said: Shahid Mousavi highway, 3.5 km long, will connect Shahid Lashkari highway to Shahid Kharazi, and with its launch, part of Azadegan highway traffic will be transferred to this route.

According to the report of Ambassador Arjan Alireza Zakani, the mayor of Tehran, in the presence of journalists and on the sidelines of the inauguration ceremony of Lieutenant General Abdul Rahim Mousavi highway, referring to the naming of this project after one of the proud martyrs of the country, stated: This project was decorated with the name of this dear martyr so that we always have a model in front of us and by referring to the life and character of the martyrs, we continue the path of service with strength.

He stated that the implementation of this project has started since 1403, and added: Although the plan of this project existed in the past, its operational measures were started in the current period of urban management. This highway is 3.5 kilometers long and connects Shahid Lashkari highway to Shahid Kharazi highway and will pass through Shahid Fahmidah and Shahid Hamdani highways.

Referring to the role of the Khatam Al-Anbiya (PBUH) construction camp in the implementation of this project, Zakani stated: This project was completed with the responsibility of the Khatam-Al-Anbiya (PBUH) camp and with the efforts of its executive group. The announced estimate for the cost of this project is about 2,200 billion Tomans at today's prices.

The mayor of Tehran also said about the completion stages of this project: other parts of the project have been accompanied by changes, and these reforms have been made, and we hope that after the completion of the acquisition process, the implementation of the remaining parts will begin soon.

Emphasizing the importance of this highway in organizing traffic in the west of Tehran, he noted: this route can play a similar role in the west of Tehran as the Imam Ali (AS) highway in the east of the capital. With the launch of this route, a significant part of Azadegan highway traffic will be transferred to this ring and a new capacity will be provided to improve the traffic flow of the city.

The development of Tehran's highway network continues

Referring to the continuation of construction projects in the capital, Zakani said: the development of Tehran's highway network continues, and in the east of the city, the contract for the second phase of the Shahid Shushtri highway has been signed and announced.

He added: Out of the total 16 kilometers predicted for Shahid Shushtri highway, 9.2 kilometers were put into operation last year, and the implementation of the remaining section is also on the agenda. It is expected to take about two years to complete this section.

The mayor of Tehran also pointed to the latest situation of Yadgar Imam highway and said: The western branch of this highway has reached Shahid Bagheri square and the southern branch still needs to be followed up. The eastern branch is also on the executive agenda after the necessary reforms and measures related to acquisition.

He emphasized: The implementation of these projects is aimed at developing the highway network, improving traffic conditions, and helping to reduce air pollution, and we hope that by completing the ongoing projects, more special conditions will be provided for the city of Tehran.

The name of the martyrs is a symbol of Iran's honor and a message of despair for the enemies

In response to a question about the message of naming urban projects after martyrs, the mayor of Tehran said: The message of these names is that the effort, struggle and greatness of our martyrs will always be a source of pride for Iran. Martyrs are our role models and the society refers to their name and memory to continue its path.

Zakani continued: Enemies tried to achieve their goals and ambitions by martyring this proud martyr, but not only did they not achieve their goals, but the name and memory of this noble martyr has become more alive in the hearts of the people and everywhere in Iran.

He pointed out: decorating urban projects and spaces with the names of the martyrs is an opportunity to keep their memory alive and follow the example of these loved ones.

At the end, Zakani emphasized on the continuation of Tehran's construction movement and said: the path of service, development and development of the city will continue strongly and construction projects in the field of infrastructure development and the capital's highway network will continue to be pursued.
