Dubai: The Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has launched new projects to improve the road network around Dubai International Airport.
Road improvements on the airport road include the provision of an additional entry point to motorists driving from Al Rashidiya towards the airport car park. Another direct entry point will be provided to serve motorists driving from Deira towards the parking zone.
"These improvements will add extra access points to Dubai airport and will help ease traffic congestion around the airport," said Mattar Al Tayer, Chairman of the Board and Executive Director of the RTA.
Improvement projects also include proper utilisation of the area in front of Terminal 1, which faces massive congestion especially during peak hours.
"Dedicated areas will be provided for the parking of hotel buses, taxis and private vehicles," said Al Tayer.
The existing entry point to the airport for motorists coming from Deira will also be widened.
The RTA will also launch a project to improve Al Diyafa Road to ease traffic congestion.
Improvements also include widening the access point of the Trade Centre interchange for traffic coming from Khalifa Bin Zayed Al Nahyan Road.
