Sharjah’s roads will be seeing a reduction in the speed limit, announced by Sharjah’s Roads and Transportation Authority (RTA).

According to Sharjah RTA’s post on X (formerly Twitter), the speed limit is now 80 km/h on Al Ittihad Road and Al Wahda Road from their previous speed limit of 100 km/h.

The organization announced that they coordinated with the General Command of Sharjah Police for this initiative, aiming to ensure smooth traffic flow on both roads.

The announcement did not specify the starting date of the new rule.

The Al Ittihad Road and Al Wahda Road in Sharjah connect major urban landscapes through flyovers, bridges, and tunnels. These roads also connect to many prime areas of Sharjah and other emirates.
