Qassim municipality steps up efforts to improve urban landscape in Al-Bukayriyah

The Qassim Municipality is intensifying its efforts to rejuvenate the urban landscape in Al-Bukayriyah, a municipality that forms part of the larger Qassim Region. The municipality's chief engineer, Fayez Al-Oqaili, disclosed that during the month of July 2026, significant progress was made towards this goal. Over the course of this period, the municipality successfully completed the construction, maintenance, and painting of more than 7,000 square meters of sidewalks.

Additionally, 349 lighting poles were either installed or repaired, marking a notable improvement in the overall appearance of the area, safety, and public facilities.

Al-Oqaili further revealed that the work encompassed more than just infrastructure improvements. The removal of 271 square meters of graffiti and the repair of 245 square meters of street potholes also contributed to the revitalization of the urban environment. The installation of 16 new directional signs further enhanced the urban environment, facilitating smoother mobility within the governorate.

Emphasizing the municipality's commitment to continuous improvement, Al-Oqaili stated that the municipality will persist in its maintenance and enhancement projects as outlined in its plans. These initiatives aim to reduce visual pollution and provide an urban environment that significantly boosts the quality of life for both residents and visitors alike.
