The closure will affect a section of the Corniche Street in Sharjah. Specifically, the stretch between Al Jubail and Al Qasba will be partially closed. Authorities have placed signs and barriers to guide drivers.

What Should Motorists Do?
SRTA is advising all motorists to use alternative routes during this period. You can take roads like Al Wahda Street or King Faisal Street to avoid getting stuck. These roads are currently open and can help you reach your destination without delays.
The department also recommends checking live traffic updates. You can use apps like Google Maps or Waze to find the best routes. This will help you avoid slow-moving UAE traffic and save time.
Why is This Closure Important?
The roadwork is part of a wider effort to improve road safety and ease traffic congestion. With the UAE traffic network growing each year, authorities need to keep roads in good shape. Maintenance and upgrades like this one play a big role in achieving that goal.
While closures may feel inconvenient, they’re necessary to ensure smoother traffic in the long run.
How Long Will the Closure Last?
SRTA has not given an exact completion date yet. However, they said the work will continue for several days. Crews are working around the clock to finish as quickly as possible.
Final Advice for Drivers
Keep your eyes on road signs and follow detour instructions. Drive carefully, especially near construction areas. And don’t forget to leave early if you have important appointments.
By planning your trip and staying informed, you can avoid UAE traffic jams and reach your destination on time.
