Bahrain prepares for the Arab Summit with comprehensive traffic management measures, including temporary road diversions and alternative routes. Residents in southern and northern governorates will have direct access to major highways leading to the capital, while various key routes within the capital itself are highlighted for use.

Until recently, it was impossible to journey the entirety of Bahrain’s Pearling Path on foot.
The serial Unesco World Heritage Site was disconnected from the coastline via a highway, but that has now changed with the opening of a new pedestrian bridge.
Now, it’s possible for visitors to walk continuously from the coastline of Bu Maher – the last remaining coastline of Muharraq – to Halat bu Maher, and then along the rest of the 3.5-kilometre pathway, taking in all 17 heritage houses and the fort that make up this vast site. Three oyster beds in Bahrain’s northern waters are also part of the trail.
