“It also serves motorists heading to or coming from Abu Dhabi without passing through the downtown area. Expo Road, which extends 15 km, serves several hotspots such as Jebel Ali Industrial Area, Jebel Ali Free Zone Authority, Dubai South and Dubai Investment Park and extends all the way to the site of Expo 2020,” he added.
Dubai Expo 2020 will be held for the first time in the MENA and South-East Asia region, and will take place from October 20, 2020 to April 10, 2021.
