Abu Dhabi is set to begin a 30-month road upgrade project in Mussafah, which will see 13 kilometers of major roads transformed. The Mussafah Road Upgrades Programme, announced in October, will introduce new bridges, improve key interchanges and upgrade several junctions along the 8th Street and E30 corridors. The project, worth approximately Dh872 million, aims to create a strategic transport link to accommodate the area's future growth and improve traffic movement.
Construction is expected to start in the first quarter of 2027, with completion anticipated around the third quarter of 2029. The programme will involve the construction of two vehicular bridges, a pedestrian bridge, and upgrades to four interchanges and nine junctions. These improvements are designed to increase road capacity, enhance traffic flow, and provide safer crossing opportunities for pedestrians.
While the exact locations of the bridges and junctions have not been specified, the project is expected to reduce journey times, ease congestion, and better accommodate the area's future growth.
