King Fahd Causeway
Since 8 March 2020, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the causeway is temporarily closed down to all passenger traffic in order to stem the spread of the COVID-19 virus between the two countries. Commercial cargo trucks are still allowed to cross the border following stringent checks. The causeway reopened on July 23 2020, and Saudi Arabia's embassy in Bahrain announce that citizens can return to the Kingdom via the King Fahd Causeway without prior permission. On September 10, 2020, the causeway is listed as closed to most non-commercial traffic on the U.S. Embassy in Bahrain website.
