The Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure in the UAE has inaugurated the partial opening of the Al Hamidiyah Bridge on Sheikh Zayed Road in Ajman, marking a significant milestone in the region’s infrastructure development. Spanning 1,100 meters and featuring four lanes in each direction, the bridge is designed to alleviate traffic congestion and improve connectivity across key areas. While the main structure is now operational, ongoing work continues on lower intersections, pavements, parking facilities, rainwater drainage systems, and connecting roads to Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road. These remaining components are slated for completion by the end of the year. The project is expected to reduce travel time by 60%, providing seamless access to residential zones, service areas, and vital facilities such as the under-construction Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Hospital and the Zayed Educational Complex. This initiative aligns with Ajman’s broader strategy for sustainable urban growth, enhancing the efficiency of its road network and supporting the emirate’s comprehensive development goals. The opening ceremony was attended by prominent officials, including H.E. Eng. Mohammed Ibrahim Al Mansouri, Undersecretary of the Ministry, and H.E. Abdulrahman Al Nuaimi, Director General of the Municipality and Planning Department in Ajman.
