Reducing The Need For Speed
Authorities in Dubai have decided to slow things down a bit. The speed limit on the stretch between Sharjah and Al Garhoud Bridge is getting a trim from 100 km/h to 80 km/h. That’s right, a safer pace for everyone on the road.
A New Speed Horizon
Starting from the Sharjah-Dubai border on Al Ittihad Road and stretching all the way to Al Garhoud Bridge, the new speed limit is set to make the journey smoother. Don’t worry about missing the memo – the traffic signs along the road are getting a makeover too. Look out for those red lines marking the beginning of the speed reduction zone, and radars on the road are getting a tune-up.
The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) partnered up with Dubai Police after a recent study. They’ve taken a magnifying glass to entrances, exits, intersections, accidents, and the latest area improvements. It’s all part of their speed management manual, ensuring the roads align with both safety and efficiency.
So, fasten your seatbelts and get ready for a safer, more responsible journey on Al Ittihad Road! Safe travels, everyone!
