New Al Garhoud Bridge to open 'within days'
Dubai's new Al Garhoud Bridge will open later this week after final touches have been made, a Roads and Transport Authority spokesman said on Saturday.
“The bridge is ready to be opened within days”, the official told UAE daily Gulf News, adding that access from Al Rebat Road will also be opened.
“Traffic congestion on roads leading to the bridge will be a thing of the past once it fully opens” he said.
Four lanes of the bridge were opened in December from Bur Dubai to Deira, with two lanes from Deira to Bur Dubai also opened in January.
The bridge will boast seven lanes in each direction in total and will carry up to 16,000 vehicles per hour, double its existing capacity. Source
