He said that the authority has supported service institutions in the field of drinking water, hygiene, and removing dust from roads.
For his part, the governor of Khartoum said that the Roads Authority, despite the loss of vehicles and some of them being looted by the rebel militia, made significant efforts to rehabilitate the roads according to an ongoing emergency plan and seeks to work on preparing the fall water drainage facilities, along with, reopening the vehicle licensing office in Karary by the traffic police.
