Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has unveiled an ambitious road infrastructure project in Al Awir 1 that promises to transform traffic movement and enhance safety for motorists. The announcement, made on Sunday, outlines comprehensive upgrades designed to streamline connectivity across the area.
The centerpiece of this initiative involves constructing 16.5 kilometers of new internal roads that will significantly improve local accessibility. In addition, the RTA will implement a strategic new entrance from Emirates Road, complemented by modernized intersections and roundabouts - all engineered to reduce travel times while optimizing traffic distribution.
A key enhancement includes expanding Emirates Road with a dedicated 4-kilometer lane stretching from Al Awir 1 towards Sharjah. This vital upgrade is projected to increase the arterial route's capacity by an impressive 16%, providing much-needed relief during peak hours.

The comprehensive plan incorporates multiple components: 5 kilometers of internal roads within Mohammed bin Rashid Housing Establishment, plus a crucial7.5-kilometer connector between Emirates Road and Al Awir1. These dual-carriageway routes feature advanced intersections, strategically placed roundabouts, and efficient U-turn facilities near Emirates Road - creating seamless integration between residential zones and major thoroughfares. Project engineers estimate these improvements will dramatically boost entry/exit capacity, jumping from current levels of1500 vehicles per hour to3000 vehicles per hour - representing100% growth in throughput efficiency. This initiative continues RTA's citywide focus on residential area enhancements, following recent successful upgrades in: Al Warqa, Nad Hessa, Wadi Al Safa3,and Al Barsha South districts.
