Dubai, UAE – The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has opened a new exit on Dubai-Al Ain Road to reduce congestion and improve travel time for commuters heading towards Al Ain and Dubai.

The newly inaugurated Exit 58 is part of a broader initiative to enhance traffic efficiency near the Al-Faqa area, addressing the rising vehicle flow along this key transport corridor.

New Traffic Solutions Implemented

As part of the project, RTA has introduced several road enhancements, including:

A 430-meter deceleration lane to facilitate smoother access to Exit 58.
A newly constructed roundabout to improve U-turn movements and access from the existing tunnel.
A 600-meter acceleration lane for vehicles merging back onto the main road towards Al Ain.

"These enhancements will significantly improve road safety and reduce travel time, ensuring a seamless experience for all road users," said Hamad Al ShehhiDirector of Roads at RTA.

Commitment to Smart Transport Solutions

The RTA emphasized that the initiative is part of Dubai’s long-term vision for sustainable and efficient transport infrastructure. By implementing rapid, innovative solutions, the city continues to position itself as a global leader in mobility and road safety.
