Region's first two-tier road in Dubai nearly complete
Staff Report-Published: July 27, 2008, 17:38 (Gulf News)
Dubai: The first regional two-tier road is due for completion in the next couple of months. Approximately 70 per cent of the upper level of the Financial Centre Road is finished, which is part of the Ras Al Khor project. The project involves the construction of a flyover across Doha Road, with three lanes Jumeirah-bound and five lanes in the opposite direction. It will provide links to new projects such as the Burj Dubai, Dubai Mall, Business Bay and the Dubai International Financial Centre. Two underpasses will also be added to accommodate traffic coming from the eastern and western parallel roads at the intersection with the Doha Road. The outbound bridge from the first Shaikh Zayed Road interchange towards the Burj Dubai/Dubai Mall will also be completed from September.
The first interchange on Shaikh Zayed Road (ex-Defence Interchange) is also 40 per cent complete, and will form the biggest flyover constructed by the RTA. This project links Shaikh Zayed Road with the upper and lower decks of the nearly completed Financial Centre Road. An underpass will link the road behind the Mazaya Centre to the road behind the Shaikh Zayed Road towers. When finished, it will complete the sixth and final phase of the Ras Al Khor project, which includes the construction of 14km of roads from the Beirut underpass to the first interchange of Shaikh Zayed Road. Completion of this project will be synchronised with completion of the Financial Centre Road project.
