This should help ease Dubai traffic…

There will be two new Salik toll gates on the Dubai roads as of November, this will take
the total number of toll gates in Dubai from eight to 10.

The new Salik roads in Dubai will be the Business Bay Crossing on Al Khail Road and the
second in Al Safa South on Sheikh Zayed Road between Al Meydan Street and Umm Al
Sheif Street.

The Business Bay Crossing gate is set to alleviate traffic congestion by 12 to 15 per cent
on Al Khail Road, decrease traffic volume by 10 to 16 per cent on Al Rabat Street, and
redirect traffic to Al Maktoum and Al Garhoud bridges and Ras Al Khor Street.

Meanwhile, Al Safa South aims to reduce right-turn traffic from Sheikh Zayed Road to
Meydan Street by 15 per cent and optimize traffic flow on Financial Centre, First Al
Khail, and Al Asayel streets.

“The addition of new toll gates in two increasingly busy locations marks the latest
milestone in the growth plan that we set out at the time of Salik’s initial public offering.
Our partnership with RTA in launching these new gates is another important step in our
journey to enhancing Dubai’s transport infrastructure with smart and sustainable
mobility solutions.” Ibrahim Sultan Al Haddad, CEO of Salik said at the time.
