Traffic chaos after two trucks crash on M7 in Sydney
Traffic is at a standstill in Sydney's southwest after a truck crash on a busy motorway. All northbound lanes on the M7 in Prestons are shut after a two-truck crash just past Kurrajong Rd on Friday morning. Cars have started to pile up along the M7, stretching back to Hoxton Park Reserve. Emergency services and traffic crews were called to the scene about 6.50am and remain on site. Motorists travelling northbound from the Hume Motorway have been encouraged to use the Camden Valley Way and Cowpasture Road instead, LiveTraffic NSW wrote. Those driving westbound on the M5 have been told to exit the motorway at Casula and use the Hume Hwy and Elizabeth Drive. There, they can rejoin the M7 at Cecil Hills. 'Expect delays,' the LiveTraffic website read. 'Use an alternative route.'

Dubai: Traffic upgrades at Healthcare City exit to Sheikh Zayed Road to cut delays
Commuting from Dubai's Healthcare City to Sheikh Zayed Road over the weekend? Motorists and taxi passengers will notice a few changes, making it easier for them to connect to Dubai's lifeline. As part of its ongoing efforts to enhance traffic flow and improve the efficiency of Dubai's road network, the Roads and Transport Authority (RTA) is finalising a series of traffic enhancements at Dubai Healthcare City exit (Street 13), with completion scheduled for Sunday, July 20. The project involves converting the current stop-controlled exit into a free-flow movement by adding a new acceleration lane leading to the intersection of Oud Metha and Sheikh Rashid Road. Additionally, the service road exit will be widened from one lane to two over a 500-metre stretch, accommodating vehicles inbound from Al Riyadh Street and heading towards the intersection of Oud Metha and Sheikh Rashid Roads. The upgraded traffic solution at Dubai Healthcare City exit to Sheikh Zayed Road will double capacity to 3,000 vehicles per hour, improving flow in this vital corridor. The enhancements are expected to reduce congestion and average waiting times by up to 50%, delivering a smoother driving experience and facilitating faster exit from the area, particularly during peak periods. See the map below: RTA had previously carried out additional improvements in the same area, including upgrades to the entry and exit points between Umm Hurair and Oud Metha, where deceleration and acceleration lanes were added to streamline vehicle movement in both directions. Furthermore, RTA expanded the service road exit onto Umm Hurair Road from two lanes to three towards the roundabout, increasing traffic capacity by 50% and reducing congestion by over 40% during peak periods.
