New bridges to ease traffic around Dubai Mall

Saturday, 19 October 2019 14:45

Accessing the popular Dubai Mall is about to get a lot easier, with the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) opening new bridges in the area.

In a series of tweets, the RTA announced that one bridge will link The Dubai Mall Zabeel parking with the upper level of the Financial Centre Street, while the other will connect to Sheikh Zayed Road and Jumeirah.

A footbridge linking the parking area with Dubai Mall will also be opened.

This project complements the bridge linking Al Khail Road and the Financial Centre Street RTA had accomplished in coordination with Emaar extending from the interchange of Ras Al Khor and Al Khail Roads to the Financial Centre Street. HE said. pic.twitter.com/tcInTM1aGC
