Sharjah's Roads and Transport Authority (SRTA) has announced a partial closure of a dual road adjacent to the Al Hazana area. The closure, part of ongoing road maintenance and infrastructure development works, aims to enhance road efficiency and improve traffic flow in the emirate.

The affected section extends from Saeed Bin Obaid Al Jarwan Square to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Sultan Bu Alayan Square. The closure is scheduled to last for six days, commencing Sunday, August 23, and concluding on Friday, August 28. During this period, traffic will be rerouted to designated alternative routes as outlined in an approved traffic plan.

The SRTA has provided a traffic plan that illustrates the diversion of traffic to surrounding roads near Al Hazana. The plan clearly marks the work area in red and highlights the alternative routes in green, ensuring that road users can navigate through the network surrounding the closure site, including connections to Sheikh Khalid Bin Mohammed Al Qasimi Street.

SRTA is appealing to all road users to strictly adhere to the approved traffic diversions and follow the directional signs and traffic safety instructions. This compliance is crucial for ensuring the safety of all individuals during the maintenance period and for maintaining the smooth flow of traffic. The authority reiterated that these development works are part of its mandate to preserve the efficiency of the road network and elevate traffic safety standards.
