The project, funded by Nakheel to the tune of AED201 million (USD55 million), is to improve traffic flow, reduce journey times and boost safety, the company said. The scheme includes road widening, new interchanges and signalised junctions in and around Dragon City, International City and Warsan Village, where more than 110,000 people live and over 200,000 visit each day.
Ali Rashid Lootah, chairman, Nakheel, said, “This project is essential to the overall, long term master plan at International City, paving the way for the future growth of the area.”
