Kuwait Considers Replacing Street Names with Numbers

This change would exclude streets named after heads of state, with a principle of reciprocity applied in naming practices with other countries.

The move aims to streamline the addressing system and potentially improve navigation and traffic management. Kuwait currently has a mixed system, where some roads have names and others are identified by numbers. This can lead to confusion, especially for visitors unfamiliar with the area.
The proposal is still under consideration, and no final decision has been made. If implemented, the transition to a number-based system would likely take time, reported Al Qabas.
