Dubai opens three-lane bridge to cut congestion under Oud Metha road project

Dubai has opened a new three-lane bridge as part of the Oud Metha and Al Asayel Streets Development Project, designed to reduce traffic congestion and improve travel times in a rapidly expanding area of the city. The bridge can handle up to 3,600 vehicles per hour and serves traffic moving from Al Khail Road toward Al Asayel Street. This phase of the project marks 90% completion, with plans to open two tunnels by the end of August to further enhance traffic flow. The initiative is part of the broader Sheikh Rashid Corridor Development Project, aiming to support growing populations in key areas like Zabeel, Al Jaddaf, and Oud Metha. Officials estimate the project will increase the capacity of Oud Metha Street from 10,400 to 15,600 vehicles per hour and reduce travel times significantly.
