Dubai’s Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has carried out a series of enhancements to the entrances and exits of Majan and Al Barari communities leading towards Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road

The latest improvements in the Al Safa 1 have been implemented to benefit road users, including service providers from the business community, students, and about 60K residents of the neighbourhood. As Dubai’s prominent economic position and global appeal make it a unique destination for living and working, RTA is committed to continuously improving traffic flow and upgrading the quality of roads across the Emirate

The construction of rest areas aligns with the significant growth in the delivery sector in recent years, addressing the public's increasing demand for goods. As of the end of last June 2024, the number of companies providing delivery services by motorcycles in Dubai reached 2,535 with a total of 40,088 delivery bikes in operation. The locations for the rest areas were selected through an analysis of operational data and by studying areas with the highest demand for delivery services, in coordination with delivery companies. As a result, rest areas have been constructed in the following areas: Hessa Street, Al Barsha Heights, Al Barsha, Al Karama, Riggat Al Buteen, Umm Suqeim (Jumeirah 3), Jumeirah (Al Wasl Road), The Greens, Dubai World Trade Centre, Al Rashdiya, Al Satwa, Nad Al Hamar, Al Nahda, Oud Metha, Arabian Ranches, International City, Business Bay, Dubai Marina, Al Jaddaf, Mirdif, Last Exit Al Khawaneej, Dubai Motor City, and Al Garhoud.
