Over three years and more of road widening, constructing bridges and fixing up traffic light systems in Jumeirah Lake Towers (JLT) following what were witnessed of negative impacts on thousands of people staying in infinite traffic lines at the peak times have become something over and done.
Comments:
*A Scottish citizen lived in JLT for two years: “It’s a big relief for me now because the roads are wider and the traffic doesn’t build up as much during rush hour.”
“It used to be a complete nightmare to get anywhere along JLT but the new access from First Al Khail Road and the new signals that have been put in place mean it’s a lot less chaotic.
“I used to wait in traffic to get on to Sheikh Zayed Road in the mornings and on a bad day it would take more than an hour just to get out of the area.”
“Thanks to the road being widened to three lanes, with a new road running in the opposite direction, along with a flyover, traffic flows much more smoothly.”
“The flyover is in the middle of the development and there is also direct access from JLT to Sheikh Zayed Road in the direction of Dubai.”
“Other improvements include the dual carriageway on First Al Khail Road, which provides direct access to the center of JLT, and seven new bridges.”
*A Pakistani citizen, planned to buy an apartment at JLT: “I was very close to getting an apartment but after renting here for 18 months the constant diversions, road works and traffic lines put me off.”
“They had been ongoing for around four years, I believe, and many people living here never thought they would get completed. But now that they have, it’s come as a huge relief to me and I imagine everyone else.
“It’s completely transformed the area and I think it will become much more attractive to people wanting to buy or live here.”
*A Canadian citizen moved into one of the towers: “I had only just arrived in Dubai for work so wasn’t really aware of the road situation and how bad it could get.”
“It was shocking but I think I was one of the lucky ones as I didn’t have to put up with it for that long. It feels like a proper community now.
“The constant construction and road works meant that it was always noisy and dusty, but now it’s completely transformed.
“It’s really nice talking a walk around the lake and the park they are making has really helped to brighten the place up.”
