Specific Hours

Traffic hours are coordinated with workplace and school schedules. Sheikh Zayed Road and Hessa Street, for example, have heavy traffic between 8 and 9 a.m. and 5 and 7 p.m. That is why you should avoid these hours and go before or after these times.

Weekends

On weekends, roadways near big retail malls and parks may be congested since families visit at this time. It's generally better if you leave your house early on Saturday morning while everyone is sleeping.
