The Muscat Governorate has said that drivers or vehicle owners can request an assessment of the damages to public road infrastructure resulting from the accident and obtain an approved technical report with the costs online.
The procedures include obtaining basic documents online for the traffic accident costs claim service - evaluation form (material damages) issued by the Royal Oman Police.
Traffic accident costs cover damages to street lighting poles, traffic lights, traffic signs, iron barriers, asphalt layer, concrete barriers, road paints, plant types, irrigation systems, shock-absorbing barriers, and roadside protections.
Submitting the Application
The affected-person can submit the application electronically via the Muscat Municipality portal www.mm.gov.om, attaching an assessment form (material damages) issued by the Royal Oman Police.
