Arabic term or phrase: صيانة وترميم ازدواج الطريق
Road construction project. What I am wondering is whether the ازدواج means dualling the road/making it a dual carriageway or does it somehow refer to the 'maintenance and restoration' and means 'both' but I don't think this works with the grammar. It is different to the name of the project used elsewhere, which has always just been about maintenance, so I'm trying to work out whether the project is actually about 'dualling' a road or just 'maintenance and restoration'.
