The old single-lane road is being\nremoved and replaced by a dual carriageway extending 11 km comprising two lanes\nin each direction, along with a median and three roundabouts to ease the movement\nin all directions. The new road will link with the entry points of Al Qudra\nLakes. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe\nproject aims to increase the road intake from an existing 1800 vehicles to 4000\nvehicles in each direction to accommodate the continued growth in traffic\nvolumes and ease the mobility of residents and visitors to the oasis on both\nsides of the road, desert areas and the Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar\nPark,\u201d said His Excellency Mattar Al Tayer, Director-General, Chairman of the\nBoard of Executive Directors of the Roads and Transport Authority. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe\nproject starts from the R\/A at the junction of Saih Al-Dahal Road with Saih Al-Salam\nRoad in the North, immediately after Al Qudra Cycling Station, and heads to the\nMohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Park in the South.
