Doha Expressway Programme, Qatar

Delivering one of the world’s largest road infrastructure network programmes.

Client

Public Works Authority (Ashghal)

Project date

2010-2020

Doha’s road network was once a fragmented system with disconnected links between commercial and residential areas. The Doha Expressway Programme is a transformative initiative to create a modern, integrated primary road network that connects key destinations with other transport systems such as rail and bus networks.

The opportunity

The programme is a cornerstone of Qatar’s infrastructure development, designed to reduce congestion and improve mobility across the city. It includes more than 40 separate projects, adding approximately 800 kilometres of new roads, 95 grade-separated interchanges, 200 bridges, 90 underpasses and 50 tunnels. The scope also includes underground utility corridors, 450 kilometres of pedestrian and cycle paths, intelligent transport systems and extensive landscaping.

What we did

Zutari has supported the programme for nearly a decade, providing:

  • Engineering and concept design

  • Technical advisory services

  • Design review management

  • Value engineering across the programme

  • Strategic traffic modelling

  • Utilities management

  • Interim design standards and details


We worked closely with design consultants to develop innovative solutions for tunnels, steel bridges, utilities corridors and interchange configurations.

Digital engineering played a vital role in the project. 3D models were used for civil design, cost estimation, workflow communication, clash detection and stakeholder engagement. Geospatial information systems (GIS) supported road network mapping, and digital design data was shared with the 2022 FIFA World Cup™ Supreme Committee for event planning.
Adding approximately 800 km of new roads, 95 interchanges, 200 bridges and 450 km of pedestrian and cycle paths.

The outcome

The Doha Expressway Programme is set to become one of the largest road infrastructure networks in the world. Zutari’s contributions have helped reduce pressure on Doha’s roads, improve traffic flow and enhance connectivity. The programme is a model of how infrastructure can support economic growth and urban development.

Zutari’s involvement in the Doha Expressway Programme demonstrates the impact of engineering excellence and innovation in large-scale infrastructure. As Doha continues to grow, this network will serve as a foundation for mobility, sustainability and economic vitality.

The use of digital engineering and collaborative design has transformed Doha’s transport landscape.
