New Project on Key Highway Will Ease Dubai-Sharjah traffic

The Sharjah's Roads and Transport Authority (SRTA) has officially revealed the completion of a traffic improvement project on Al Ittihad Road. This project will enhance the capacity for Dubai to Sharjah daily travelers and will make traffic on the arterial road get easier.

An extra 600-metre lane has been added by the authority which is connected to the Khulafa Al Rashideen Bridge. The authority posted a video showing the additional lane has been added to take the exit towards Al Khan.

The project has been welcomed by commuters. One of the Sharjah residents, Abbas Malik, has said that the road extension near Safeer Mall has lowered the pressure on traffic heading towards Al Majaz, Corniche and Rolla areas.

“There is always a severe bottleneck near the mall, but now the situation is comparatively better. It used to take 15 minutes just to clear the traffic congestion there, but now it takes just five. This has also made life easier for motorists heading towards industrial areas,” added Malik.

“This will also provide relief to motorists using the Ittihad Road and heading towards King Faisal Road and Ajman,” he added.

According to Reza Rouf who takes the Dubai-Sharjah route daily, he said that the lane added is a life saver as this is the place where most commuters spend their time during peak times. He added that this lane addition will ease the process of taking the exit.

Al Ittihad Road is one of the main highways which links between Sharjah and Dubai. This results in traffic jams especially during rush hours along the highway.
