Enhancing Dubai’s Traffic Flow

I’d like to suggest some ideas to help make Dubai even better for both residents and visitors. By relocating key services—like consulates, government offices, and exhibition centers—to areas outside the city center, we can reduce traffic, make better use of space, and create a smoother experience overall.

Moving these services to strategic areas, such as the Expo Area or near Maktoum Airport, would ease congestion and make Dubai more accessible and enjoyable. This approach would support Dubai’s vision for growth and help create a city that’s even more livable and welcoming.
