On Friday, July 20, Dubai Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) will open a 420m tunnel providing a left-turn from the Happiness Street to Al Meydan Street. The tunnel is part of the recently opened Phase II of the Parallel Roads Improvement Project at the Business Bay District.
The Tunnel is part of the Western Parallel Roads Improvement Project spanning the area between Al Meydan and the Financial Center Streets and across the Business Bay District. The project covered the construction of a 240m flyover at the intersection of the Happiness Street and Burj Khalifa Boulevard, and a 535m tunnel at the intersection of the Happiness Street and the Business Bay Street.
The Project also included the construction of a 500m bridge along the extension of the Happiness Street crossing over the Dubai Water Canal, and 420m bridge at the intersection of Al Meydan Street and First Al Khail Street, in addition to a 340m tunnel as Horse Crossing at the Dubai Stables.
The opening of the project has contributed in smooth traffic flow in the area between the Financial Center Street and Al Meydan Street, and across the Business Bay District up to Al Qouz.
