Al Shindagha Tunnel

Al Shindagha Tunnel is a road tunnel under the creek of Dubai, United Arab Emirates. Opened on 19 December 1975, it was managing volumes of some 55,000 vehicles daily by 2010. The tunnel connects the neighborhoods of Al Ras, Deira and Al Shindagha in Bur Dubai. It is the only road tunnel crossing Dubai Creek - the other crossings are (in order of construction), Maktoum Bridge, Garhoud Bridge, Business Bay Crossing and the Infinity Bridge. The Dubai Metro also passes under the creek. The tunnel has a total of four lanes (two in each direction), a height clearance of 5 meters and speed is limited at 60 km/h (37 mph).
