Moderate jams can also be seen on Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan street, opposite Eastern Mangroves. Out of the city a minor crash near the Watani project is causing slow traffic on E10 Um Al Nar – Al Shahama highway. Heavier traffic can be seen along the E11 – Sheikh Maktoum bin Rashid road. Cars were lining up opposite the New Mafraq Hospital to the intersection ahead of Shakhbout City. In Dubai, Sheikh Zayed Road is heavily congested near the Business Bay area and on the main section to Sharjah.
