Challenges and Future Plans in Dubai
Despite the exciting celebrations, Dubai motorists faced significant traffic challenges, with up to 45 hours lost in traffic jams this year. This increase is attributed to the rising population and growing number of vehicles. In response, the government has announced plans to expand road lanes substantially over the next five years to improve traffic flow.
