Driving between Sharjah and Dubai? There will be changes to your route on Al Taawun Street starting June 13. Road works in the area will bring a temporary partial closure, but Sharjah RTA has already prepared alternative routes for drivers.
Check the map of the affected area below to see the updated traffic flow and diversion routes.

Here’s how traffic will be redirected:
- Towards Dubai or Al Nahda Bridge: you’ll be routed through Al Corniche Street
- From Al Nahda Bridge towards Sharjah: you’ll be directed to the newly developed Al Taawun Street
Roadworks aren’t the only thing starting this weekend. The long break to celebrate Islamic New Year is coming too, and if you’re still making plans, check out Top Things to Do in UAE This Weekend (June 12–15): Shows, Football Screenings & Family Fun.
