RAK-Dubai travel time to be cut to nearly half with new roads, bridges
Khaleej Times
|September 29, 2025
An upgrade of Emirates Road that will help reduce travel time by up to 45 per cent for commuters coming from Ras Al Khaimah, passing through Umm Al Quwain and Sharjah, and reaching Dubai and vice versa has started, the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure (MoEI) announced on Friday.
With an estimated cost of Dh750 million and an implementation period of two years, the project includes expanding the road from three to five lanes in each direction over a distance of 25km, starting from Al Badee Interchange to Umm Al Quwain. This will increase the road's capacity to around 9,000 vehicles per hour, or a volume increase of 65 per cent.
