RTA opens final World Trade Centre Roundabout bridge on Friday

Dubai's Roads and Transport Authority will open the final bridge of the World Trade Centre Roundabout Development Project on Friday, October 30, 2026. The 1,000-metre, two-lane bridge will accommodate approximately 3,000 vehicles per hour, serving traffic from Al Majlis Street towards 2nd December Street. Journey time from Al Majlis Street to 2nd December Street will drop from six minutes to one minute, while average delay at the intersection will fall from 12 minutes to 90 seconds. The project involves five bridges with a combined length of 5km, costing over Dh696 million. The completed roundabout converts the former roundabout into an at-grade intersection, providing free-flowing traffic in all directions and enhancing connectivity between major road corridors. The project serves key economic and commercial areas including Dubai World Trade Centre and Dubai International Financial Centre, benefiting more than 500,000 residents and visitors.
