Sheikh Zayed Road

Al-Futtaim says the famous Toyota sign’s story is not over as Dubai’s Nasser Rashid Lootah Building prepares for demolition in 2027

RTA said the project is designed to ease congestion, support commercial transport and daily commuting

Stretching approximately 12 kilometres, the new strategic corridor will strengthen links between some of Dubai’s busiest road networks, connecting Sheikh Zayed Road through Al Khail Road

The new route is expected to reduce travel time for motorists heading from Al Bada’ towards Sheikh Rashid Road and Al Mustaqbal Street from eight minutes to just two minutes

The move comes to advance the road infrastructure network in line with sustained development across residential and commercial corridors

Supported by Driven | Forbes Global Properties, the project is set to become a landmark that sets global benchmarks for luxury living in Dubai

The initiative is part of the RTA’s broader strategy to improve traffic flow and reduce congestion across the emirate’s major road networks

This expansion is designed to accommodate vehicles coming from Al Riyadh Street and heading toward the busy Oud Metha junction

The authority also upgraded the connecting ramps between the surface road and the First Al Khail Road bridge from one lane to two

The RTA is also set to construct a two-lane bridge in Nad Al Sheba, spanning approximately 700 metres
