With partial road closures in effect in parts of the UAE capital, there have also been speed limit changes announced on two Abu Dhabi roads.
The first being the speed limit on Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed International Road (E11), which has been changed from 160 km/h to 140 km/h.
New Speed Limits to Take Effect on April 14, 2025
Abu Dhabi drivers should prepare for new speed limit changes on important roads. Abu Dhabi Mobility has announced that the speed limit on the Abu Dhabi–Sweihan Road (E20) will be reduced from 120 km/h to 100 km/h. These changes will take effect starting April 14, 2025.
Why the Speed Limit Is Changing
The government aims to improve road safety and reduce serious accidents. By lowering speed limits, they hope to make roads safer for everyone. These updates are part of a larger plan to manage traffic better across the emirate.
Stay Updated and Plan Ahead
Ongoing road development projects continue across Abu Dhabi. Motorists should check for alternative routes when needed and plan their journeys in advance. This helps avoid delays and keeps traffic moving smoothly.
Watch for Speed Cameras and Signs
Cameras monitor most major roads at all times. If you’re unsure about the current speed limit, it’s safer to drive slower. Updated speed limit signs are posted to help drivers stay informed.
Drive Smart, Drive Safe
These speed limit changes highlight Abu Dhabi’s commitment to safety. Following the new limits not only avoids fines but also protects lives. Always stay alert, follow signs, and adjust your speed as needed.
Final Reminder
Start preparing now for the upcoming changes on April 14. Stay informed, drive carefully, and help make Abu Dhabi’s roads safer for all.
Drive safe, Abu Dhabi.
