On average, 25 cars crossed into Bahrain from Saudi Arabia per minute during the Eid Al Fitr holidays, revealed new statistics. Meaning, that during the three days of Eid, around 107,000 cars rolled into Bahrain from Saudi Arabia through the King Fahd Causeway, figures released by Al Edhbariya TV said.
The King Fahd Causeway Authority earlier said on its Twitter that 16,796 cars had used the bridge during 12 hours of the second day of the Eid that began on Monday. The operator also posted a video showing its personnel handing gifts to travellers on the Eid occasion.
The King Fahd Causeway, inaugurated in 1986, is a 25 km (15.5 mi) long series of bridges and causeways connecting Khobar, Saudi Arabia and Al Jasra, Bahrain. Last March, Saudi Arabia lifted several restrictions, including the mandatory vaccination certificate, PCR tests before and upon arrival, and quarantine for travellers.
