Commuters in Dubai and Sharjah are experiencing significant delays on major roads this Wednesday morning, with traffic moving at a sluggish pace. The congested routes include Al Ittihad Road (E11), extending from Al Nahda through Al Qusais towards Deira, and Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road (E311) passing through Sharjah's industrial areas en route to Muwaileh and University City.
Inside Sharjah, Al Khan and Al Taawun are also experiencing heavy traffic. In Deira and Mirdif, Airport Road near Al Rashidiya, Tripoli Street near Mirdif, and Damascus Street in Al Qusais are similarly impacted. Similarly, Al Khail Road (E44) in Ras Al Khor, Meydan and Al Quoz, as well as Dubai–Al Ain Road (E66) near Nad Al Sheba, are seeing delays.
Other affected roads include Hessa Street near Al Barsha and Dubai Sports City, Umm Suqeim Road near Al Barsha South, Sheikh Zayed Road near Dubai Marina and JLT, and Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road near Jumeirah Village Circle and Arabian Ranches. However, most of Sheikh Zayed Road is running smoothly, and traffic is flowing efficiently on Emirates Road (E611) near Dubai Silicon Oasis and Academic City.
Authorities advise drivers to plan their trips ahead, allocate additional time, and monitor live traffic updates before embarking on their journeys.
