It’s not just a road.

The infrastructure project inaugurated by His Highness Dr Shaikh Sultan Bin Mohammad Al Qasimi, Ruler of Sharjah, in Khor Fakkan on Saturday goes far beyond that.

The 89-km road, which reduces the travel time between Sharjah and Khor Fakkan to 45 minutes from 90 minutes, is another phase in the development of the east coast.

The Dh6-billion project, which includes five tunnels, restored historic forts and landmarks, will have a far-reaching impact on the coastal town, known as The Bride of the Eastern Coast.

It will make Khor Fakkan for ever closer to the rest of the country and allow residents and tourists to come and enjoy the amazing scenery and magnificent beaches of the historic town.
