“The construction of internal roads at Sama Al Jaddaf is part of our efforts to improve the infrastructure of roads, lighting, and rainwater drainage systems in residential areas to cope with the demographic and urban expansion in the emirate and bring happiness to people. The project included the construction of roads extending 12km, two signalised junctions and street-lighting works,” said Mattar Al Tayer, Director-General and Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of RTA.

Meanwhile, the construction of internal roads for the Mohammad Bin Rashid Housing Establishment at Oud Al Muteena 1 extended 7km. The project is linked with the surrounding roads network to ensure smooth mobility of road users from and to surrounding areas. Works included street-lighting, roadside parking and pedestrian pavements.

“RTA has completed 47 per cent of construction works in internal roads at Al Khawaneej 2. The network spans 77km, including single-lane roads – 68km – and dual collector roads – 9km. The project works included rainwater drainage, electricity and water, and street-lighting,” added Al Tayer.
