Traffic is slow going this morning in Abu Dhabi, with delays on Airport Road and Khaleej Al Arabi Street.

On Salam Street, tailbacks extend from the Delma Street junction past the Eastern Mangroves.

Off the island, traffic is moving slowly on Maqta Bridge and on the E20 after the Mussaffah Bridge.

In Mussafah, there is some congestion near Dalma Mall and Mohammed bin Zayed City on the E30, 28th Street and 51st Street.

Commuters in Dubai will see traffic in the usual trouble spots.

There are southbound delays on Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road (E311) near Dubai Investment Park, heavy congestion at the exit for The Gardens near Ibn Battuta Mall and southbound delays on the Sheikh Zayed Road (E11) near Dubai Internet City. Motorists heading from Sharjah to Dubai should expect long waits on the Dubai border.

A crash on Sheikh Zayed Road (E11) after Times Square has caused delays for northbound traffic.

Southbound, a crash has been reported on Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road (E311) after the Umm Sequim turnoff. Finally, drivers should use caution on the Ras Al Khor Road (E44) near Ras Al Khor Industrial Area, where another crash has been reported.
