New four-lane tunnel opens in Dubai to ease traffic
An 800-metre tunnel with four lanes in each direction has opened in Dubai as part of a project to ease traffic flow in the city. The tunnel extends from the junction with Al Khail Road to the intersection with Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road as part of the Umm Suqeim Street development project. The project is part of plans by Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) to ease the flow of traffic and improve the road infrastructure in the emirate. 'The Umm Suqeim Street development project extends from the intersection with Al Khail Road to the intersection with Sheikh Mohamed bin Zayed Road, covering a distance of 4.6km," said Mattar Al Tayer, RTA director general, on Sunday. "The works included upgrading the intersection of Umm Suqeim Street with Al Barsha South Street, near Kings' School, where an 800-metre-long underpass with four lanes in each direction was constructed, in addition to a signalised surface-level intersection. "This development is considered one of the most important strategic projects for developing transverse east-west roads to enhance connectivity with vertical north-south roads. The completion of the project complements RTA's efforts to upgrade this corridor." The tunnel is part of plans to develop the Umm Suqeim-Al Qudra corridor, which extends from the intersection with Jumeirah Street to the junction with Emirates Road, spanning a total of 16km.

10,000 rials to 1: Iran poised to knock four zeroes off currency
Iran has moved a step closer to knocking four zeroes off its currency, after economic woes pushed the value of one US dollar to almost a million rials. The change would mean 10,000 rials become one, making trading simpler. It was backed by an economic commission of Iran's parliament on Sunday, but still needs approval from higher authorities. The commission also backed keeping the name rial instead of changing it to one toman - which currently refers to 10 rials. The redenomination was first mooted in 2019 but then shelved. Iran's central bank governor Mohammad Reza Farzin said he would pursue the plan in May. He said the Iranian rial "does not have a favourable image" in the global economy. The move comes as Iran faces deepening economic challenges, including runaway inflation, a sharply devalued currency, and the prolonged impact of sanctions on Tehran. US President Donald Trump has reinstated a policy of "maximum pressure" on Iran, which also suffered heavy damage during a 12-day war with Israel in June. As of Sunday, the rial was trading at around 920,000 to the US dollar on the street market, according to local media and a website called Bonbast that monitors unofficial exchange rates. Turkey knocked six zeroes off its currency, the lira, in 2005, after years of high inflation. Zimbabwe once removed 10 zeros, turning 10 billion dollars into one after hyper-inflation ravaged the economy. In June, Iranian lawmakers approved new economy minister Ali Madanizadeh after his predecessor, Abdolnaser Hemmati, was ousted in a no-confidence vote for failing to address the country's economic woes. The current bill will have to pass a parliamentary vote and gain the approval of the Guardian Council, a body empowered to vet legislation. It wasn't clear when that would happen.

Riyadh Air is gearing up for a spectacular start. There has been a noticeable increase in travel between the Middle East and the United Kingdom. And, with the surge in demand comes the need for more seats in the sky. That's where Saudi Arabia's upcoming airline, Riyadh Air, steps in with plans for flights between Riyadh and London. The official announcement is still under wraps. Flights between Riyadh and London have been reported to launch on 26 October, 2025. According to Airport Coordination Limited, which manages the highly sought-after slots at London Heathrow, Riyadh Air has secured take-off and landing rights. This is a significant milestone for the Saudi carrier. The airline intends to operate daily flights between Riyadh and London Heathrow using a Boeing 787-9 Dreamliner with 288 seats. There is also speculation that an ex-Oman Air Dreamliner may be used temporarily. Although, the airline is reportedly keen to debut its own purple-branded aircraft. Riyadh–Heathrow is clearly a strategic commercial choice. Riyadh Air is positioning itself as the world's first digital-native airline. The airline promises a sleek and intelligent passenger experience from the moment you step on board. The designers have thoughtfully incorporated both luxury and traditional Saudi elements into each cabin. Expect indigo, sky blue, and peach tones inspired by Riyadh's skyline and desert landscape.
