Dubai traffic: RTA launches road projects for smooth rides
Image credit: WAM (Picture used for illustrative purposes) Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has announced a series of major infrastructure upgrades aimed at improving traffic flow, reducing congestion, and enhancing road safety across key areas in the emirate. Read- As part of its strategic plan to improve the road network's efficiency and cater to the city's growing population, RTA will implement temporary traffic diversions, construct new bridges and tunnels, and upgrade critical intersections. في إطار جهودها المستمرة لتطوير البنية التحتية المرورية وتعزيز كفاءة شبكة الطرق، أنجزت — RTA (@rta_dubai) Temporary traffic diversion on Al Qudra Road Starting June 22, 2025, Under this diversion plan, the traffic signal at the intersection of Al Qudra Road and the road connecting Arabian Ranches to Dubai Studio City will be removed. Traffic will be rerouted away from the intersection, creating a free-flowing corridor between Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road and Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street. Additionally, two new signal-free U-turns will be constructed to facilitate smooth traffic movement and minimize delays. The RTA is urging motorists to plan their trips ahead of time, depart early, and avoid peak hours whenever possible during the diversion period to ensure a smoother journey. Major intersection upgrades in Jumeirah and Al Mina areas In another infrastructure milestone, RTA has completed improvement works at the intersections of Jumeirah Street and Al Mina Street with Sheikh Rashid Street. This project is part of a broader initiative to ease traffic congestion in central areas and improve travel time across multiple directions. The upgraded intersections feature a series of bridges and tunnels spanning more than 13 kilometres, designed to serve over one million residents in the area. The improvements are expected to increase the vehicle capacity from 6,400 to 24,000 cars per hour, a near fourfold boost. The enhancements will also significantly reduce travel time in the corridor, from 32 minutes to just 12 minutes, improving connectivity and commuter experience in and around Dubai's coastal districts. تواصل إليكم تفاصيل مشروع تطوير شارع الجمايل (جرن السبخة سابقًا) الذي أنجزته الهيئة ليخدم أكثر من 9 مناطق سكنية وتطويرية، أهمها أبراج بحيرات… — RTA (@rta_dubai) Development of Al Jamayel Street In line with its vision for a seamless, connected Dubai, the RTA has launched the development of Al Jamayel Street, formerly known as Garn Al Sabkha Street. The road stretches across seven kilometres, linking key residential and commercial hubs including Jumeirah Lakes Towers, The Gardens, and Al Furjan. The project is designed to enhance road efficiency along the service routes parallel to Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road, one of Dubai's busiest transport arteries. By improving surface intersections and expanding key roads, the RTA aims to enhance mobility for both residents and daily commuters. As part of the upgrades, four new bridges spanning a total of 2,874 metres will be constructed. These bridges are expected to increase road capacity to 17,600 vehicles per hour, significantly easing congestion during peak times. In terms of travel time, the project promises substantial reductions: From Al Jamayel Street to Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road: reduced from 20 to 12 minutes From Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road to Al Yalayis Street: reduced from 21 to 7 minutes
