Dubai will soon get a new 25km-long road.


The 25km long road is located in the eastern part of Dubai between Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road to the west and Emirates Road to the east.



Mattar Al Tayer, Director-General and Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) in Dubai, announced the opening of the extension of Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street linking Dubai-Al Ain Road and Al Yalayes Road.


Built at a cost of Dh474million, the new road extending 25km will be opened on Wednesday.


The construction of Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan St has been undertaken in implementation of the directives of His Highness Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, to expedite the construction of road projects and transport systems to keep pace with the upswing seen by Dubai.


"The project is part of RTA's master plan for improving roads, bridges, crossings and underpasses to accommodate the growing traffic volumes, and ease the traffic movement in all parts of Dubai emirate. It is also part of the overall efforts to implement RTA's strategic plan for upgrading roads and transport infrastructure in Dubai. The objective is to develop integrated solutions of roads and marine network that are safe for users, capable of matching to the development plans and demographic growth and encouraging the development and investment in the emirate. The new street is located in the eastern part of Dubai emirate between Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road to the west and Emirates Road to the east," said Al Tayer.


"The extension of Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan St includes the construction of a street comprising four lanes in each direction extending 25km from the intersection with Dubai-Al Ain Road up to the existing R/A at Al Yalayes Road. It also includes the construction of several intersections with the surrounding roads network. A flyover has been constructed at the intersection of Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan St with Latifa bint Hamdan St near the entrance of the International Village for motorists coming from Emirates Road. Works include constructing a signalised junction at the intersection with Al Qudra Road, and a surface signalised junction at the intersection of Hessa St. The traffic solutions for these junctions are interim and will be developed for final traffic solutions. The project also includes lighting works as well as shifting and protecting the utility lines," he added.
