The partial closure is after the Khalifa Industrial B towards Abu Dhabi on the motorway.

The department urged motorists to drive cautiously and abide by the traffic rules and regulations.

In another video message, the Abu Dhabi Police asked motorists to avoid using mobile phones while driving because it’s one of the major causes of road accidents in the emirate.
