It's caused because traffic going into Dubai and in the opposite direction to Jebel Ali all has to travel on one small road to join another where there's a traffic signal.
There is a way that it could be eased, but the planners at the RTA obviously have other ideas.
One of the bridges across the marina was completed, opened, then closed after a few days. It's been closed for maybe a year.
But...
Drivers are bumping up onto the footpath to get around the concrete barrier, drive happily across the bridge, do the footpath detour the other side and use the less-congested road there.
As this is an option people take every morning you have to wonder why the bridge isn't simply re-opened.

It's funny. I've lived all my life in South Africa where road rules merely a guide - nothing's enforced and not many people even stick to the guides. I've been in Australia for only 5 and a half months and I absolutely love the order.
Shit like this just doesn't happen here - and if it did, someone would do something about it.
I love your observations! Keep 'em coming!
