In the current situation where the country is engaged in an all-out war, the implementation of urban projects has become particularly important.

The opening of this bridge demonstrates the continuity of urban management activities under the current difficult conditions. He also thanked Mehdi Sedaghat, the Technical and Urban Development Deputy of Tehran Municipality, and all those involved in the execution of this project.
So far, 70 projects including 146 bridges and underpasses have been opened, reflecting the continuous efforts of urban management for urban infrastructure development.
