Abu Dhabi Police unveil strict Eid Al Adha security and traffic plan
Abu Dhabi Police have confirmed full security and traffic preparations ahead of the Eid Al Adha holiday. A detailed plan has been put in place to ensure public safety and smooth traffic movement across the emirate during the celebrations. Authorities will increase police patrols in busy areas, entertainment spots, and major roads throughout Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, and Al Dhafra. The goal is to reduce congestion and respond quickly to any incidents during the holiday period. Traffic management teams have developed specific scenarios to handle high volumes of vehicles and pedestrians.
The central operations room will stay open 24/7 to manage emergency calls and coordinate rapid responses. Security patrols will focus on residential zones, public gathering points, and key roads to prevent reckless driving and illegal activities. Police have issued warnings against dangerous behaviour, including speeding, stunts, and unauthorised races near homes.
Awareness campaigns will run throughout Eid Al Adha to remind residents and visitors of safety rules. Families have been advised to keep a close watch on children and avoid using or trading fireworks, which pose serious risks. Drivers are also urged to follow traffic laws, maintain safe speeds, and avoid any actions that could endanger others. The measures aim to provide a secure environment for all during Eid Al Adha. With reinforced patrols, traffic control, and public awareness efforts, authorities seek to prevent accidents and ensure a smooth holiday. Residents and visitors are encouraged to cooperate with police instructions for a safe celebration.
