The RTA has completed 80% of the Al Khaleej Street Tunnel project, which extends 1,650m from the end of Infinity Bridge ramp in Deira to the intersection of Al Khaleej Street and Al Wuheida Street.
It features 3 lanes in each direction and has a capacity of up to 12,000 vehicles per hour in both directions, the RTA confirmed.
The project is being implemented in line with the directives of the leadership, to complete the phases of the Al Shindagha Corridor Improvement Project, and keep pace with ongoing development along the corridor, and meet the needs of population growth, it added.
Mattar Al Tayer, Director General, Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of the Roads and Transport Authority commented, “The construction of Al Khaleej Street Tunnel forms part of Al Shindagha Corridor Improvement Project, one of the largest projects currently being undertaken by RTA. The corridor extends 13km along Sheikh Rashid Street, Al Mina Street, Al Khaleej Street and Cairo Street, and includes the development of 15 intersections. It serves several key residential communities and development projects, most notably Dubai Islands, Waterfront Market, Dubai Maritime City and Port Rashid. The project is estimated to serve 1m people and reduce journey time from 104 minutes to 16 minutes by 2030.”
Al Tayer added, “The project includes the construction of a 1,650m tunnel with 3-lanes in each direction, providing free-flow traffic movement between Infinity Bridge and Deira, and vice-versa. It also includes converting roundabouts on Cairo Street and Al Wuheida Street into signalised intersections, carrying out improvements on Cairo Street, and connecting the ramp from Dubai Islands to the new tunnel on Al Khaleej Street towards Al Mamzar. The project serves Abu Hail, Al Wuheida and Al Mamzar, in addition to development projects including Dubai Islands, Waterfront Market and Al Hamriya Port.”
