The Giza Governorate has announced a complete closure of the 26th of July Axis, specifically the stretch between the Western Ring Road and the New Ahmed Arabi Axis, in the direction coming from 6th of October City towards Lebanon Square.
This closure will commence at 12 AM on Friday and will last for 7 months, with construction work ongoing 24 hours a day.
