Dubai is gearing up to host the T100 Triathlon World Championship this weekend, significantly impacting local traffic conditions. The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) has issued a notice that several key roads will experience closures and detours to accommodate the event.
Traffic Impact and Road Closures
Thousands of athletes and spectators are expected to attend, prompting the RTA to implement measures aimed at maintaining smooth traffic flow throughout the city. Motorists are urged to:
- Check affected routes in advance
- Allow extra travel time to prevent delays
- Consider alternative routes where possible
Salik Toll Adjustments
To help manage traffic efficiently during the triathlon, the Salik toll on Sunday, the day of the race, will increase by AED 2 during the morning peak hours. This means:
- The toll will be AED 6 between 6 AM and 10 AM (up from the usual AED 4).
