It represents the fourth bridge built under the large Al Khail Road Development Project along the busy road, To increase traffic flow and ease congestion, this bigger project calls for the building of 3,300 meters of bridges and lane enlargement spanning around 6,800 meters.

As confirmed by Hamad Al Shehhi, the Director of RTA's Traffic and Roads Agency, final preparations for the bridge's opening finished on Saturday, Al Shehhi said the bridge, set to open on October 13, can carry up to 3,200 cars per hour.

Apart from the new bridge, surface road enhancements have also been done over 1,550 meters. These upgrades will improve connectivity from Al Khail Road to Ras Al Khor Street, therefore relieving traffic in this busy section.

Since there will now be distinct lanes for those headed towards Deira and another way for those heading to Ras Al Khor, the new bridge will also tackle another traffic issue: the practice of cars moving diagonally from one lane to the neighboring lane – or weaving.

Al Shehhi also underlined how greatly the Al Khail route Development Project will boost the general capacity of the route. With the enlarged infrastructure—including bridges and new intersections—an extra 19,600 vehicles per hour will be accommodated.

Serving approximately 1.5 million people and witnessing more than 300,000 daily traffic, Al Khail Road is one of Dubai's most important roadways.

Seven localities along the Al Khail Road Development Project will gain greatly from it. These comprise Zaa's beel, Meydan, Al Quoz 1, Al Jaddaf, Ghadeer Al Tair, and Jumeirah Village Circle. The improved infrastructure will clear traffic congestion in these areas and offer Dubai better connection all around.

Al Shehhi also hailed the project's execution's rapidity. Completing the bridges under less than nine months, part of a comprehensive infrastructure makeover, shows the effectiveness of Dubai's urban development initiatives.

Three more bridges under the Al Khail Road project have opened recently. Among these are a bridge connecting Al Khail Road to Financial Center Street and granting access to Sheikh Zayed Road in Zaa'beel. Al Quoz 1 has another bridge linking traffic from Al Khail Road to Al Waha Street and Latifa Bint Hamdan Street. Serving the Jumeirah Village Circle complex, the third bridge runs between the crossroads of Al Khamila Street and Hessa Street.

Next week will find the opening of the last bridge in this five-bridge sequence. Between the Latifa and Meydan interchanges, this bridge is located and completion of the Al Khail Road Development Project will signal the end of.

Once completely operational, these new bridges will drastically increase traffic flow, ease congestion, and give thousands of daily commuters faster, more effective paths, The initiative guarantees better commutes and more connectivity all throughout Dubai, therefore highlighting its dedication to improving its infrastructure to support a rising population and economy.
