Al Qudra Street Development Project: Dubai RTA Awards AED 798 Million Contract

Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has awarded the contract for the Al Qudra Street Development Project. The initiative, costing AED 798 million, extends from the intersection of Al Qudra Street with Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road, continuing through Sheikh Zayed bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street.

The Al Qudra Street Development Project, which aims to decrease travel time from 9.4 minutes to 2.8 minutes, includes the development of several interchanges, the construction of bridges totalling 2,700 metres, and the expansion of the existing street by 11.6 kilometres. The project is designed to optimise traffic flow and enhance mobility for residents and visitors throughout Dubai.

According to Mattar Al Tayer, Director General and Chairman of the Board of Executive Directors of RTA, the project will improve road capacity and optimise traffic flow at key strategic intersections. "It will also facilitate seamless traffic movement on Al Qudra Street towards Emirates Road, providing direct connectivity to Al Qudra City and vice versa," Mattar Al Tayer added.
