Dubai commuters faced heavy traffic on August 20 as heavy congestion was reported on E11 and E311, along with several problematic bottlenecks on key roads leading to Dubai from Sharjah. The E11/Al Ittihad Road, which connects Sharjah to Dubai, was particularly affected, with extensive dark-red traffic congestion from Al Majaz and Al Khan towards Al Taawun, Sahara Centre, and Al Nahda.
Similarly, E311/Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road also experienced significant delays through Sharjah's industrial areas and Muwaileh. While some smaller roads remained clear, the majority of congestion was concentrated around major junctions and highway approaches. The National Centre for Mobility (NCM) issued red and yellow fog alerts, warning of reduced visibility in certain areas until 8:30 am, which may have contributed to the morning traffic issues.
