The Roads and Transport Authority in Dubai recently announced the reopening of Sheikh Zayed Road to motorists traveling from the Trade Center roundabout to Intersection No. 9, which intersects with Al Maktoum Airport Road heading towards Abu Dhabi.

Furthermore, the authority assured the public that taxi and public bus services would return to their normal operations. It emphasized ongoing efforts to mitigate any hindrances to transportation services, acknowledging the understanding and cooperation of Dubai residents amidst the challenging weather conditions experienced in the emirate.

This acknowledgement underscores the shared responsibility among commuters in navigating through exceptional circumstances.
