RTA announces important initiatives for improving traffic flow-through, set to improve access and journey times for more than 6,000 residents
Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has completed construction works on the internal roads at Margham, Lehbab, Al Lesaili, and Hatta regions, spanning a total of 35km.
This comes close on the heels of RTA’s recent completion of the construction of internal roads at three residential districts – Al Quoz 2, Nad Al Sheba 2 and Al Barsha South 3 – extending 37km across the three districts.
In addition, RTA has already started further road works at both Lehbab and Al Lesaili, designed to significantly improve traffic flow-through and enhance local residents’ access.
The Margham project covers roads extending 5km along Dubai-Al Ain Road, near Skydive Dubai. The work includes road pavements, rainwater drainage networks and streetlights. The project will serve more than 1,100 local residents.
Meanwhile, the Lehbab project scope includes paving roads extending 4km, as well as infrastructure work for rainwater drainage and streetlights. The project will directly serve more than 3,000 residents.
The Al Lesaili project will cover street lighting works for the existing roads at Saih Assalam near the Last Exit, and Al Qudra Lakes, extening over 7 km. The project, which serves about 2,900 residents, will focus on improving the entry/exit points of the area.
Announcing the project completion, Mattar Al Tayer, Director-General, Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors, RTA said, “The project reflects RTA’s commitment to upgrading the infrastructure of roads, streetlights, and rainwater drainage systems in residential communities. The project covers the construction of roads extending 2km at Suhaila in Hatta in addition to infrastructure works that include rainwater drainage and streetlights. It serves about 6,000 residents and improves the entry/exit points as well as the connection of the newly developed residential community with the road network.”
