Opening of a New Bridge as Part of the Al Qudra Road and Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street Intersection Improvement Project
Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) opened a four-lane bridge on the southern, right-hand side of the intersection of Al Qudra Road and Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street, as part of the
project to upgrade the intersection. Extending 700 metres with a capacity of 6,000 vehicles per hour, the bridge serves traffic flow along Al Qudra Road towards Al Qudra City. The opening completes
the traffic configuration at the intersection, following the opening of the opposite bridge last February, which serves traffic from Al Qudra City towards Umm Suqeim. Together, these works enhance
traffic flow and improve connectivity between the area’s key corridors.
