Dubai- UAE: Dubai has rolled out one of the big infrastructure projects the recently completed Al Rowaiyah Street improving connectivity in four fast growing urban centers. The project is one of the strategic roads planned by the roads and transport authority (RTA), and it is anticipated to alleviate traffic congestion as well as fostering enhanced mobility and greatly benefiting the residents and commuters on major districts of Nadd Hessa, Dubai Silicon Oasis (DSO), Dubai International academic city and Warsan 4.

Easy And Quick Connections

The most recent Al Rowaiyah Street is a 3.5 kilometre road that is meant to provide a direct connection between the Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road (E311) and the Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street. Its key task is to enhance traffic movement within the territories that are critical to Dubai residential and economic development.

The street serves four major urban areas, including Nadd Hessa, Dubai international academic city., Dubai Silicon Oasis, and Warsan 4 and also enhances accessibility of commuters besides aiding the ease of movement within the road system in Dubai. The strategic location of Al Rowaiyah Street is that it is not only an essential connection to the already existing road systems, but also a driving force to the further expansions of the eastern parts of Dubai.

Increased Traffic Performance And Networking

The first and most obvious positive aspect of Al Rowaiyah Street is the extraordinary decrease in the time spent on a major arterial route. The connection of E311 with Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street has made traveling to Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road only 4 minutes instead of spending around 10 minutes on the road, which is a 60 percent efficiency increase.

The project also enhances the traffic capacity of the Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street by up to 40 percent to take into consideration the future needs of the demand as the city keeps expanding.

Minor Improvements And Community Enhancements

The Al Rowaiyah Street development was not a point that concentrated on vehicles. When laying out the project, 2km of dedicated cycling tracks were also included, which promoted healthy lifestyles and more frequent use of soft forms of mobility such as bicycles. These extensions work towards the broader vision of Dubai with regards to the sustainable and dynamic transportation infrastructure.

Examining the integration of cycling tracks the Roads and Transport Authority has not only been focusing on improvements of traffic and commuting, but also made some steps on the way of making urban areas livable and environmentally sensitive.

Benefits To Key Urban Areas

Nadd Hessa: The new road improves accessibility of inhabitants in the Nadd Hessa residential neighborhood to fast access to the major highway networks and other neighboring communities.
Dubai Silicon Oasis (DSO): Dubai Silicon Oases, the large technology and innovation center, will be benefitted by the increased accessibility to the commuter traffic and the enhanced accessibility to workers and businesses.
Dubai International Academic City: Being one of the leading educational centers with a number of institutions located in it, Dubai International Academic City receives a better transport connection, which assists students and employees in commuting with improved efficiency.
Warsan 4: Warsan 4, an up-and-coming residential and mixed-use area, will also have improved interconnection with major road networks, and the integration of the entire eastern Dubai will be enhanced.

Study Of Projected Impact On Population

The positive changes that were brought about by the Al Rowaiyah Street project will be felt by over 80,000 people by the year 2030. This vision points to the magnitude of the urban and infrastructure development that will take place in the immediate environs.

Al Rowaiyah Street directly contributes to the long-term vision of the efficient and sustainable movement of people in Dubai by improving capacity, shortening travelling time and encouraging alternative transport methods.

The Al Rowaiyah Street Opening Is A Milestone

The opening of Al Rowaiyah Street is one of the major milestones in the current endeavors in Dubai to improve its transport system. The project is in addition to other proposed projects including future expansion of the Dubai Metro and the construction of new residential and commercial centers especially around the Dubai International Academic City and Silicon Oasis.

With Dubai still developing, the infrastructure development projects such as the Al Rowaiyah Street will be at the centre stage in facilitating sustainable movement, economic growth and better living standards to both residents and tourists alike.
