Two of the longest and largest main roads run through North Amman:
Jordan Street: Established in 2005 with a length of 28 km, it connects Amman and Irbid governorates, extending from Wadi Al-Haddadeh in East Amman and running through North Amman via Shafa Badran and Abu Nusair for 20 km within Greater Amman limits, and 8 km outside until reaching the Amman-Irbid International Road.
