A groundbreaking bridge linking Sheikh Zayed Road to Dubai Harbour is set to revolutionize travel times, reducing the journey to the sought-after seafront locale from 12 minutes to just three. This 1,500-meter marvel boasts two lanes in each direction, a brainchild of Mattar Al Tayer, the Director-General and Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA). Positioned as a direct entry/exit point for Dubai Harbour, the bridge’s capacity to accommodate 6,000 vehicles per hour is a significant boost.
Stretching from the fifth intersection on Sheikh Zayed Road, near the American University in Dubai, to Dubai Harbour Street, the bridge weaves through key intersections like Al Naseem Street with Al Falak Street, crossing over King Salman bin Abdulaziz Al Saud Street en route to Dubai Harbour, as highlighted by Al Tayer.
Abdulla Binhabtoor, the Chief Portfolio Management Officer at Shamal Holding, the proud owner of Dubai Harbour, emphasizes the project’s role in ensuring seamless traffic flow. This visionary development aligns with their commitment to crafting extraordinary residential and tourist communities, enriching Dubai’s landscape. Nestled between the iconic Bluewaters Island and Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Harbour is not just a transit hub; it’s a vibrant home, housing attractions like Skydive Dubai with its impressive 770-meter runway.
