Residents who use Sheikh Mohammed bin Musa Al Khwarizmi Street in Al Juraina 1 will have to use alternative routes to get to their destinations. The partial closure will be in place from Friday, December 26 to Sunday, December 28. Road users have been asked to follow traffic safety instruction at all times to protect themselves and others.

The Sharjah RTA routinely performs maintenance checks on roads in the emirate, ensuring that there are no potential risks for road users. Not only are existing routes checked and maintained, they are constantly upgraded as well, to improve the quality of commutes for residents and visitors.

It was announced in November 2025 that two new projects would improve roads in Sharjah, in order to increase safety, reduce commute times and ease congestion.

The first project involves a five-kilometre stretch of Sharjah Ring Road, located near the Etihad Rail station. University City Bridge will also be expanded to incorporate four lanes. The second project involves a new bridge coming up adjacent to the Martyrs' Monument in Sharjah.
