Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), Dubai announces that it has awarded a contract for Phase II of Hessa Street Development.
The project spans the 3 km corridor between Al Khail Road and Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road. It includes upgrading three major intersections by constructing bridges extending 8,835 metres and a 480-metre tunnel, as well as improvements to entry and exit points along several connecting roads.
The project increases Hessa Street’s capacity by 100%, from 4,000 vehicles per hour to 8,000 vehicles per hour. It serves 10 residential and development areas and benefits approximately 650,000 residents, while reducing journey time from 24 minutes to five minutes.
RTA will open Phase I of Hessa Street Development in April, including completed bridges, upgraded intersections, and dedicated cycling tracks.
