Motorists in Abu Dhabi should brace for a partial road closure on one of the city’s busiest thoroughfares. Starting today at 11am, three right lanes of the E10 (Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Road) heading towards Abu Dhabi from the Shahama/E12 intersection will be closed.
This closure will remain in effect until 6am on Tuesday, August 13, as announced by Abu Dhabi Mobility on their social media platform X.
Impact of the Closure of E10 Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Road
The closure affects a critical section of the E10, a major route for commuters traveling into Abu Dhabi. The lanes will be closed from the Shahama/E12 intersection, a vital connection point linking different parts of the city, to the main stretch leading into central Abu Dhabi.
This area typically experiences heavy traffic, particularly during peak hours, making it essential for drivers to plan their routes in advance.
Purpose of the Closure
This road closure is part of ongoing infrastructure improvements aimed at enhancing traffic flow and ensuring road safety. The construction and maintenance work necessitate the temporary closure to allow crews to work efficiently and safely.
By diverting traffic away from the construction zone, the project aims to minimize disruptions and complete the improvements on schedule.
