New Dubai bridge cuts World Trade Centre journey time from 10 minutes to two

Dubai: Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority has opened a new bridge near Dubai World Trade Centre, cutting journey times in the area from about 10 minutes to two.

The 500-metre, two-lane bridge is part of the Al Mustaqbal Street Development Project and is designed to improve traffic flow for motorists leaving Dubai World Trade Centre and the One Central development.

The bridge carries traffic towards Al Mustaqbal Street and Za’abeel Palace Street, providing a more direct route through one of the city’s busiest commercial districts.

RTA said the project would help ease congestion and provide faster, smoother journeys for drivers travelling through the area.
