Abu Dhabi\u2019s Integrated Transport Center will allocate AED 3 bn to new traffic<\/strong>improvement projects<\/strong>, aimed at slashing commute times, making roads safer, and improving connectivity between regions, it said on X (watch, runtime: 0:56<\/a>). <\/p>\n

The largest upgrade will be the establishment of a 25 km road<\/strong>, four to five lanes wide, connectingAbu Dhabi Island to themainland via a string of intermediary islands, state news agency Wam<\/a> reported. The road will have capacity for 8-10k vehicles per hour in both directions, and looks to connect developments throughout Abu Dhabi while relieving congestion along axes linking Abu Dhabi island to the mainland, Wam said. <\/p>\n

The project will progress in two phases: <\/strong>The first phase will link Al Saadiyat Island and Umm Yifienah Street, to Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Street and Al Reem Island, while the second phase connects Umm Yifeenah Island to Al Raha Beach, the E10 road, Al Khaleej Al Arabi Street E20, and Madinat Zayed.<\/p>\n

Other projects: <\/strong>The projects also include improvements to Al Khaleej Al Arabi Street and Musaffah Road, and the development of bridges on Abu Dhabi-Al Ain Road and 79th street in Mohamed bin Zayed City.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
