RTA Opens 700-Metre, 4-Lane Bridge at Al Qudra Road Intersection
Summary
Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority opened a 700-metre, four-lane bridge on Sunday at the intersection of Al Qudra Road and Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street. The bridge, with a capacity of 6,000 vehicles per hour, serves traffic moving along Al Qudra Road towards Al Qudra City. It completes the intersection's traffic configuration, following the opening of the opposite bridge in February that serves traffic from Al Qudra City towards Umm Suqeim. The upgrade is part of a project to enhance traffic flow and connectivity on key corridors.
Why it matters
Drivers using Al Qudra Road will experience smoother traffic flow and reduced delays at this intersection, especially those commuting between Al Qudra City and Umm Suqeim, as the newly completed bridge configuration now serves both directions.
Dubai / UAE impact
Residents and visitors in the Al Qudra, Umm Suqeim, and surrounding areas will benefit from improved connectivity and shorter travel times on this major Dubai corridor, with the bridge's 6,000-vehicles-per-hour capacity easing peak-hour congestion.
