Abu Dhabi Police has announced a change in the speed limit on Khalid bin Sultan Street in Al Ain. The new speed limit is now set at 80 km/h and is applicable for traffic moving in both directions between Al Ghail Roundabout and Al Sarooj Roundabout. This change is part of a broader initiative to enhance road safety and alleviate congestion in the area.
This decision comes in the wake of several measures implemented earlier this year aimed at improving road safety in Abu Dhabi and across the UAE. These measures include temporary road closures, the construction of two new tunnels in the Mina Zayed Area, and the introduction of substantial discounts on traffic fines incurred by motorists in the capital.
The authorities have advised all drivers to adhere to the new speed limit and follow road safety instructions at all times. This move is particularly significant for those who tend to drive at high speeds, as they will now need to adjust their driving habits to comply with the reduced speed limit.
The implementation of these measures underscores the commitment of the Abu Dhabi authorities to ensure the safety of motorists and pedestrians alike. It also serves as a reminder to all drivers about the importance of adhering to traffic rules and regulations for their safety and the safety of others.
The Abu Dhabi Police continues to monitor the situation closely and is committed to taking further measures as necessary to maintain road safety. As such, drivers are urged to stay updated with any future changes and to always prioritize safety when behind the wheel.
