125km of roads built in Dubai’s Al Warqa area

The RTA has opened all internal roads in the area between the Tripoli Road in the North, Al Awir Road in the South, Academic City Road in the East, and the Shaikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road in the West.

Dubai — The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) in Dubai has completed the construction of 125km of internal roads in Al Warqa 1, 2, 3 and 4. The authority has opened all internal roads in the area between the Tripoli Road in the North, Al Awir Road in the South, Academic City Road in the East, and the Shaikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road in the West.

“The project included the construction of new roads stretching 125km, widening of existing roads at Al Warqa extending 36km, and fitting these roads with all requisites such as lighting and parallel parking slots,” said Maitha bin Udai, CEO of the RTA’s Traffic and Roads Agency.

“Work is currently underway in rehabilitating entrances to villas and buildings which is expected to be completed by the middle of this year. Once completed, it will ensure a smooth traffic movement for residents and safe movement of road users from nearby districts.”

The project is part of the first and second batches of the ‘Five-Year Plan 2012-2015 for Upgrading and Improving Roads Network’ to meet the rising needs of the population and urbanisation in the emirate.
