Watch out for these road closures in Dubai

Friday, 22 February 2019 09:22

The annual Street Festival is in town and that means some roads will be partially closed on Friday.

Two streets in Dubai will be partially closed from noon until midnight today because of the festival.

The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) says large sections of Al Mustaqbal and Al Raya Street will be closed for traffic.

They say motorists can use the adjacent Al Multaqa Street as an alternative.
