I saw this on 4thringroad and thought it was pretty cool. The ministry of public works have setup a live stream of the new Jaber Hospital that’s being built. I know there is nothing exciting about watching a hospital being constructed but if you look at the bigger picture here this actually could be a start to something bigger.
If the ministry can stream live footage of a hospital being built then they can easily start streaming live footage of traffic on highways. Imagine being able to check out the traffic on the 5th Ring Road before heading out or checking live footage of multiple roads and then deciding which one to take. I think that would be very cool and extremely useful so hopefully this live stream of the hospital is just a start to something a lot bigger. Here is the link if you want to watch the hospital being built. [Video Stream]

This is really cool actually 😀
Makes me wanna go there in front of the cam and do something stupid haha
Any idea where it’s being built? 😛
Oh, this reminds me of the GUST campus when it was being constructed
Othman: South Surra, on the main road right in between Shuhada and Zahra.
From the design schematics, this is going to be the largest public hospital in Kuwait with 1100 beds and one of the most advanced in the region. They’re aiming to position it as one of the leading medical institutions in the Middle East by way of technology, treatment, facilities and staffing.
Opening? Sometime in 2013.
This hospital was supposed to be finished in 2005. What a JOKE!
Will this hospital be accessible to expatriate too or only locals will be allowed for free treatment?
cool! now, lots of people can see who’s not doing their job… =)
Wow..gives a whole new meaning to the term “watching the paint dry”.
actually alot of projects do this. United Tower which is being constructed in downtown kuwait also has a live feed running https://194.126.63.208/cgi-bin/guestimage.html
the thing with live feed from highways is used in the US. with weather watch apps on the iphone i was able to access traffic cams and check rush hour traffic
good idea and it maybe better if they install a project completion counter ,so everyone can keep an eye on the physical progress of the project versus the contractual period .
Is it true that a retail park ‘has come up in Shuwaikh? It has to do with a windmill or something like that! If it has , then that’s definitely the first in Kuwait…sounds like a totally new concept!
are u talking about the same windmill out on the billbords?
I saw the windmill on billboards as well…i wonder what it stands for…they mentioned something about the New Landmark…Sounds interresting…
Yep, thats the one I’m talking about..
Hey, i saw the billboards, I think there was an AD in the papers as well. It looks cool,I like the whole landmark concept, very creative!
