Al Khail Road - a major road parallel to Shaikh Zayed Road, will be turned into a six-lane highway to cope with increasing traffic congestion, said a senior official.
His Highness Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice-President and Prime Minister of the UAE and Ruler of Dubai, has approved Dh1.29 billion contracts for Phase 2 and 3 of the Al Khail Road Upgrading Project being undertaken by the Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA).
The project includes widening and upgrading the 15km-long Al Khail Road between the junction of Muscat Road up to the junction of Emirates Road.
The existing road will be widened from four to six lanes, and the existing four roundabouts on the road will be transformed into interchanges.
The project also includes an extension of the Al Khail Road for nine kilometres providing a link between the Emirates Road interchange and the Dubai Bypass Road to serve new communities.
