Sharjah has announced that new traffic regulations governing truck movement on Emirates Road will take effect on Tuesday, June 23, 2026. The measures are part of ongoing development work intended to improve traffic flow and strengthen road safety.
The Sharjah Roads and Transport Authority, in coordination with the Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure and Sharjah Police General Headquarters, has introduced a set of rules covering truck routes and access roads in key areas, including Al Rahmaniya, Al Zubair, and Al Sajaa.
Under the new traffic plan, trucks will no longer be allowed to pass through the Al Rahmaniya Tunnel. Instead, vehicles arriving from Ajman will be diverted via the Al Zubair Tunnel toward the Al Sajaa Industrial Area.
The measures also involve adding an additional traffic lane on the free-flow slip road for vehicles heading toward the Al Zubair Agricultural Area. A new direct local access road connecting Emirates Road to the Al Zubair Residential Area has also been introduced to improve connectivity and facilitate smoother traffic movement.
Furthermore, truck traffic leaving the Al Sajaa Area and heading toward Dubai will be routed through a designated tunnel.
The authority stated that these changes are part of ongoing efforts to develop Sharjah’s road network, improve traffic efficiency, and enhance safety for all road users.
Motorists and truck drivers have been urged to adhere to traffic signs and official instructions to ensure smooth traffic flow and maintain road safety.
