Fujairah: Hamad Bin Abdulla Road
Hamad Bin Abdulla Road is the main road running east–west through Fujairah City, Emirate of Fujairah, United Arab Emirates.
Hamad Bin Abdulla Road is a hub for the business and commercial centre of Fujairah City. It is lined with tall office buildings (e.g., Fujairah Tower) and hotels. The main mosque, the large white Sheikh Zayed Mosque, the second largest in the UAE, is to the north of the road. The LuLu Mall Fujairah is to the south. The University of Fujairah is located on the road.
At the western end, the road continues as the Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed Expressway (aka Sheikh Khalifa Highway), a dual carriageway road, linking Fujairah City with Dubai and other parts of the UAE. At the eastern end, the road reaches the Fujairah Corniche and the Al Corniche Road, going north and south close to the seafront. Near this point are the Central Market and Fabric Souk, and the Fish & Vegetable Market.
Najimat Tunnel
The project as a whole is a strategic axis within the structural plan of the road network implemented by the Ministry Of Energy And Infrastructure, and one of the vital projects in the Emirate of Fujairah, as it is the main road that penetrates the city center from Sheikh Khalifa Road to the Corniche and reaches Kalba Road and Khor Fakkan Road.
It reduces the travel time by 73% from 15 minutes to 4 minutes, and the road capacity is increased by 100%, from 10,000 vehicles per day to 20,000 vehicles. Moreover, the project includes a rainwater drainage network, 3 pedestrian tunnels and 3 car tunnels.
