Dear JVTers,

Caution: Road Works on Mohammed bin Zayed (MBZ) Road entrance to JVT

UPDATE (Sat 19 Nov) – the new entrance from MBZ Road into JVT is fully opened!

UPDATE (Friday 1:20pm) – RTA was very reactive and contacted me to inform that the road access for Garn Al Sabkha (and if I understood well our JVT entrance) will be re-opened by tonight 6pm.

I’d like to inform fellow residents that the JVT entrance from MBZ road has temporarily shifted. Take care to follow the entrance into the petrol station or you’ll no longer be able to get into JVT at the main entrance. We discovered this coming back home this morning at 8:30am. I have tried to contact RTA for an update on when these road works will be finished. The request has been put in and once I get more news I’ll be sure to share this. Surely these new lanes will be completed in the next days allowing easy entrance in and out of our community. However, for the time being, beware of these changes which are not well signposted.
