Saturday 4 Oct , 2025 {HMC} Somali government has announced the reopening of more than 50 roads in the capital, Mogadishu, which had been closed for years due to security concerns.
According to a statement from the Federal Government on Saturday, the decision follows a comprehensive security assessment and aims to ease severe traffic congestion and improve the daily lives of residents.
For years, the closure of key routes—particularly those near government buildings and diplomatic missions—has hampered urban mobility, restricting access to schools, hospitals, markets, and businesses.
Authorities said the reopening of these roads is expected to ease traffic flow, boost local economic activity, and help restore a sense of normalcy to city life.
The government also urged the public to cooperate with security forces to ensure the process is carried out safely and efficiently.
