Going to Sharjah from Dubai? Bus trips suspended, traffic diverted due to floods
Residents heading to Sharjah from Dubai should expect some challenges on the road as the rainy weather has impacted traffic and public transport.
Some bus services between Dubai and Sharjah have been suspended, the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) announced.
Bus Route E315 will be temporarily unavailable as heavy rain continue to batter several parts of the country. Commuters may use alternative lines: E303, E306, E307, E307A.
Traffic on a major Dubai-Sharjah road has also been rerouted.
“Due to water accumulation on Sheikh Mohamed Bin Zayed Road in Sharjah, traffic will be diverted to Emirates Road via Tripoli Street,” the RTA said.
In Sharjah, all exit tunnels leading to major roads — Sharjah Maliha Road, Sharjah Al Dhaid, and Khor Fakkan Road — were also closed due to rainwater accumulation, the police said.
With adverse weather conditions expected to peak today, residents are advised to stay home unless absolutely necessary.
