Sharjah has begun easing traffic restrictions near the Etihad Rail station, with two lanes now available in each direction on roads leading to the facility. The Sharjah Roads and Transport Authority announced the phased reopening on Tuesday, October 6, with the work set to continue until November 29, 2026. Motorists can now travel from Industrial Area 17 through University Bridge, with alternative routes in place for those heading towards Maliha Road.

The partial reopening follows similar measures implemented earlier in August, which saw two lanes available for traffic between University City and the Institutes Land area. The current plan aims to enhance the road network around the Etihad Rail station, boost capacity, and ensure smooth access to properties and services in the affected area.
