New 1-Minute Shortcut to Mall of the Emirates Now Open
Hate sitting in traffic just to reach the Mall of the Emirates? That’s about to change. Dubai has unveiled a new bridge that slashes travel time to the Mall of the Emirates from 10 minutes to just 1, offering a congestion-free route.
The shortcut connects Sheikh Zayed Road directly to the mall. If you’re driving in from Abu Dhabi or Jebel Ali, this new route is a game-changer.
What’s the shortcut all about?
The new bridge is 300 meters long and can handle up to 900 vehicles per hour. It’s a single-lane road but smartly designed to ease congestion. You’ll glide past the traffic and land right at the Mall of the Emirates entrance in less time than it takes to pick a playlist.
It’s part of a larger plan to upgrade the roads around the mall. That includes better intersections, wider lanes, and improved pedestrian walkways.
So what’s in it for you?
- Faster mall access from Sheikh Zayed Road
- Less time in traffic, more time at the mall
- Smoother parking with upgraded entry points
- Improved walking paths if you’re on foot
- Better cycling access for fitness lovers
This upgrade enhances both traffic flow and the overall visitor experience around the Mall of the Emirates.
More upgrades around the corner
This bridge is just one piece of a bigger puzzle. RTA is also widening ramps and roads near Umm Suqeim. That’ll make things easier not just for mall visitors, but also for residents in the surrounding areas.
They’re also installing additional signs and signals to help guide drivers smoothly through the area. That means fewer wrong turns and a lot less frustration.
Conclusion
Reaching the Mall of the Emirates just got a whole lot easier. Whether you’re shopping, grabbing coffee, or catching a movie, this new shortcut saves you time. Try the new route out on your next visit. You might even beat your GPS.
