Project Description
The Upgrade of King Abdullah Road Project will provide a continuous 5.3 km Urban Freeway in Riyadh from Prince Turkey Road to King Abdulaziz Road.
The 5.3 km segment will complete one of the remaining gaps of grade separated intersections in one of the most congested corridors in the Kingdom’s capital. Existing traffic in the project area is mostly stop and go throughout the day.

Project Purpose and Need
The primary purpose of the proposed project is to:
Reduce existing and forecast traffic congestion on king Abdullah Road between Prince Turkey Road and King Abdulaziz Road. The project is expected to enhance traffic operations by adding freeway level capacity in an area that currently experiences heavy congestion, and is expected to see increased congestion in the future.
Improve both existing and future mobility and enhance safety throughout the corridor, while minimizing environmental and economic impacts. The project will:
ease congestion, improve mobility by moving almost twice as many cars, decrease commute times for all drivers, enhance traffic safety, and reduce air pollution.

Detour of Classical Construction

Top-Down Construction Methodology
The “Top-Down” construction approach was primarily devised for existing structures short of space (parking, offices, utilities etc..) such as the existing building may remain in place and its activities uninterrupted while the additional construction works and expansion is happening beneath it. Later it was adopted to other construction industries such as highways, bridges, and even new buildings where significant benefits may be achieved by adding the ability to proceed with construction in both directions at the same time, starting at the ground surface.
In existing buildings or structures, where appreciable loads are present on the existing foundations, micropiles will be required to retain the sides of the excavation and to transfer the vertical loads onto a new bearing stratum taking into consideration differential settlement and its effects on the structure. Normally such works are very sensitive and require high technicity and expertise.

Design principle
Step One:
Drill the 60 cm piles, 150 cm on centers, install the piles reinforcement cage, and cast concrete up to the bottom level of the (60x146) pile cap.
![Page 9: King Abdullah Road 4 12 07 Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.pub/reader033/viewer/2022051617/55a434881a28abc9778b4664/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Step Two:
Install the reinforcement cage of the (60x146) pile cap.
Design principle

Step Three:
Cast 20 cm of the 146 cm depth of the pile cap to provide seating for the pre-cast pre-stressed beams.
Design principle
![Page 11: King Abdullah Road 4 12 07 Presentation](https://reader033.vdocuments.pub/reader033/viewer/2022051617/55a434881a28abc9778b4664/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Step Four:
Place the (60x100) pre-cast pre-stressed beams, seated 3 cm on the 20 cm cast portion of the pile cap. One beam is placed every 150 cm, i.e. one per pile.
Design principle

Step Five:
Lay the 6 cm pré-dalle seated 3 cm on the top of the pre-cast pre-stressed beams.

Step Six:
Place the reinforcement of the 20 cm topping slab, anchored in the pile cap reinforcement cage.
Design principle

Methodology for Traffic Assessment
In the macro-simulation- Check the traffic volumes - Determine the impact of detours (speeds and capacities)- Identify the diversion points and routes (by pass)
Tests of the options of detours in a micro-modeling tool - Determine the Level Of Service (LOS)- The design of the new intersections- Traffic optimization- Reduce as possible the impact of the works
Detailed detour plans and the required signage

Sample Run
As per Highway Capacity Manual (HCM), the adopted Level of Service (LOS) are:
- A speed >=41 kph - B speed >=32 & speed <41 kph
- C speed >=23 & speed <32 kph
- D speed >=18 & speed <23 kph
- E speed >=14 & speed <18 kph- F speed <14 kph
