Gulf Today
|June 09, 2025
Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) commenced a series of traffic improvements across 40 key locations in the emirate, scheduled for implementation between June and September 2025.
The works will cover 22 major streets, 9 school zones, more than 5 development areas, and several internal roads in Tolerance District, Al Khawaneej 2, and Nad Al Sheba.
These improvements will be carried out during the summer holiday to minimise disruption to daily traffic flow while ensuring the highest safety standards at all targeted sites.
RTA remains committed to enhancing Dubai's road infrastructure to keep pace with the ongoing urban expansion and economic development.
These efforts form part of a broader strategy to improve traffic flow, road safety, journey times, and connectivity between residential, educational, and development areas across the city.
