Abu Dhabi traffic watch: closures affecting July 23-26
Two active road closures will affect Al Dhafra and Al Ain through the Thursday-to-Sunday window, with a separate Abu Dhabi Police parking warning for Friday prayers.
What overlaps the window
For Thursday through Sunday, July 23-26, two scheduled partial closures remain active: one on Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed International Road (E11) in Al Dhafra, and one at a temporary roundabout in Al Ain. Abu Dhabi Police has also issued a separate warning about parking that can obstruct traffic around mosques and main roads, particularly during Friday prayers.
| Area | Official notice | Active during July 23-26 | Practical watchpoint |
|---|---|---|---|
| Al Dhafra | Partial closure on Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed International Road (E11), from Monday, July 20 through Monday, August 3. 1 | Yes, all four days | Allow extra time and follow the temporary traffic directions on the road. |
| Al Ain | Partial closure of the temporary roundabout at Nahyan The First Street and Khalifa Bin Zayed The First Street, from Sunday, July 19 through Monday, July 27. 2 | Yes, all four days | Expect the junction layout to be affected; follow signs and directions at the approach. |
| Abu Dhabi, around mosques and main roads | Abu Dhabi Police says illegal or haphazard parking can block traffic, parking entrances and exits, and other vehicles, especially during Friday prayers. The post cites AED 500 fines for parking behind vehicles in a way that obstructs movement and for improper parking. 3 | Friday watchpoint | Use designated parking areas. Do not stop behind another vehicle or block a mosque entrance or exit. |
The main route to plan around
The E11 notice is the longest-running item in this week's window. It affects the Sheikh Khalifa Bin Zayed International Road in the Al Dhafra Region and remains in force beyond the weekend, through Monday, August 3. 1
The Al Ain notice ends Monday, July 27, so it covers the Thursday-to-Sunday period and the start of the following week. It concerns the temporary roundabout where Nahyan The First Street meets Khalifa Bin Zayed The First Street. 2
Neither notice specifies a replacement route in the post. Use the signed diversion or traffic direction in place when you reach the affected area rather than relying on an older route plan.
Friday parking watchpoint
The Abu Dhabi Police advisory is not a road closure. It is a reminder that parking in front of mosques, on main roads, behind other vehicles, or across access points can interrupt traffic flow. The warning is especially relevant around Friday prayers. 3
For a Friday trip, leave room for extra circulation near the mosque you are visiting and use marked parking spaces. Recheck the linked official notices before departure in case traffic directions change on the day.
