"Dubai roads" The bridge expansion leading to Terminal 1 of Dubai International Airport opens
DUBAI, 17 JANUARY / WAM / The Roads and Transport Authority, in partnership with the Dubai Aviation Engineering Projects Corporation, opened the project to expand and develop the bridge leading to Terminal 1 at Dubai International Airport, by increasing the number of lanes from three to four lanes, increasing the capacity of the bridge from 4,200 vehicles per hour to 5,600 vehicles per hour, a growth rate of 33%.
The expansion was carried out from three lanes to four lanes, by constructing a new bridge using an innovative system of iron box girders combined with a composite concrete slab. This engineering solution was implemented due to its high construction efficiency, the possibility of completing the bridge within a short period of time, and providing the highest safety standards during project implementation.
The project also included implementing road paving improvements, infrastructure services and landscaping works to achieve integration with the surrounding infrastructure, in addition to providing street lighting to enhance safety and visibility.
