The improvements will reduce delay time from 12 minutes to 90 seconds, and cut travel time from Sheikh Zayed Road to Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Street from six minutes to one minute
The project is part of a initiative to enhance Dubai’s road network, particularly as a support corridor to major highways like Sheikh Zayed Road, Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road, and Emirates Road
The latest traffic improvements in Al Safa will impact approximately 60,000 residents of the neighbourhood
Once completed, the project is expected to reduce journey times significantly, with peak hour travel times expected to be slashed by up to 40 per cent
The project, part of RTA’s master plan for jogging and cycling tracks, aims to increase the length of cycling tracks in Dubai to 819 kilometres by 2026
