New plans are separate to earlier scheme to double-deck the emirates road artery
The Roads & Transport Authority (RTA) has moved the entry deadline for a design competition for increasing the capacity of Dubais Sheikh Zayed Road to early April.
The competition is separate to earlier plans for the double-decking of Sheikh Zayed road, for which consultants submitted offers in 2014.
At the time, that large-scale infrastructure project was one of the most ambitious in the emirate and was expected to cost more than AED10bn ($2.7bn) to build.
The RTA had shortlisted three consultants. They were:
- Aecom (US)
- KEO International Consultants (local office)
- Parsons International (US)
Sheikh Zayed Road is the main highway running through Dubai and frequently experiences heavy traffic for up to 10 hours a day.
