This measure by the Roads and Transport Authority in Dubai (RTA) aims to manage traffic flow efficiently, especially in light of the UAE Union Day celebrations scheduled from December 1 to 3 and the commencement of COP 28 on November 30.
In order to further alleviate traffic congestion, the RTA strongly recommends the utilization of public transport.
Additionally, motorists are cautioned to adhere to signage and stay updated on road screens for information regarding traffic diversions and alternative route options.
