RTA Opens New Junction on Al Wasl Road, Cutting Travel Time Significantly

Hey Dubai drivers, good news! The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has just made your commute a whole lot smoother. They’ve unveiled a brand-new junction at the intersection of Al Majasimi and Al Wasl Road. Located between Umm Suqeim Street and Al Thanya Street, this upgrade is set to ease congestion and make your journey faster and more convenient.

Simplified Traffic Solutions:

RTA’s got some smart solutions up its sleeve. By installing new signals and tweaking traffic streams, they’re making sure you spend less time stuck in traffic. One major change is the addition of left turns from Al Majasimi Street onto Al Wasl Road. No more awkward right turns onto Umm Suqeim Street followed by a U-turn dance on Al Wasl Road. It’s all about streamlining your route and cutting down on traffic jams.

Faster Travel Times:

Get ready to shave off some serious minutes from your commute. Thanks to these improvements, the trip from Umm Suqeim 3 northward to Al Wasl Road now takes just 30 seconds, down from a frustrating three minutes. Imagine what you can do with all that extra time saved from sitting in traffic!

Al Wasl Road- Wider Lanes, Smoother Rides:

But wait, there’s more! RTA hasn’t stopped at just reworking intersections. They’ve also widened Al Majasimi Street from one lane to two in each direction. That means double the lane capacity, from handling 1,200 vehicles per hour to a whopping 2,400. With more space on the road, you can expect smoother sailing even during rush hour madness.

Looking Ahead:

These changes aren’t just about making your daily commute less of a headache. They’re part of RTA’s bigger plan to keep Dubai moving forward. By investing in better traffic management and infrastructure, they’re laying the groundwork for a more efficient and enjoyable driving experience for everyone.


So next time you hit the road in Dubai, keep an eye out for these improvements. With faster travel times, wider lanes, and smarter traffic solutions, getting from point A to point B has never been easier. Thanks, RTA, for keeping Dubai on the move!
