ubai-Sharjah rail project to kick off in 2015, says minister Dubai: Ministry of Public Works must look at ways to ease traffic congestion on Dubai-Sharjah road by building more roads and fast-tracking the trans-emirate train service, demanded members of the Federal National Council (FNC) on Tuesday.
Train service will help to ease traffic flow as it would reduce the number of cars on the road, said the lawmakers.
Roads in the northern emirates are so crowded that the problem has become unbearable, they added.
Shaikh Hamdan Bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, Minister of Public Works, agreed that the train service would not only ease traffic congestion, but also reduce the cost of road maintenance and other projects.
Shaikh Hamdan said tenders for the project to run trains will be offered by 2015.
