Road works on highways E311 and E611 in Dubai, causing detours for a duration of two months, commencing from June 28.
Heads up, folks! The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) in Dubai is putting a wrench in the works for Emirates Road commuters starting June 28, 2025. They're implementing a two-month traffic diversion at the Mudon Underpass, and it's all in the name of progress—the upgrades focus on beefing up the rainwater and groundwater drainage system and road resurfacing.
So, what's a commuter to do? Fret not! You've got options. Take a detour via Underpass 7 for a U-turn towards Jebel Ali or use Hessa Street to find yourself on Sheikh Hamdan bin Zayed Street, heading towards Dubai. Remember, a little advance planning can go a long way in smoothing out your travel during this period.
For those finding themselves in the vicinity of the Al Barari Underpass on Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311), be prepared for another similar diversion. Starting on the same date, road improvements are set to take place for the next couple of months as well. You can dodge delays by choosing alternate routes, like opting for the Dubai-Al Ain Bridge U-turn towards Jebel Ali or taking the Global Village Underpass and Umm Suqeim Street intersection U-turn towards Sharjah.
On a positive note, the RTA encourages all commuters to take advantage of the time to plan their trips efficiently. After all, there's no time like the present for some smart travel planning. So, keep an eye out for the latest developments, and stay ahead of the curve!
